Proverbs 3
- 1 My son, forget not my law; but let your heart keep my commandments:
- 2 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to you.
- 3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you: bind them about your neck; write them on the table of your heart:
- 4 So shall you find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man. ¶
- 5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not to your own understanding.
- 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths. ¶
- 7 Be not wise in your own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
- 8 It shall be health to your navel, and marrow to your bones.
- 9 Honor the LORD with your substance, and with the first fruits of all your increase:
- 10 So shall your barns be filled with plenty, and your presses shall burst out with new wine. ¶
- 11 My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:
- 12 For whom the LORD loves he corrects; even as a father the son in whom he delights. ¶
- 13 Happy is the man that finds wisdom, and the man that gets understanding.
- 14 For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
- 15 She is more precious than rubies: and all the things you can desire are not to be compared to her.
- 16 Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honor.
- 17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
- 18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold on her: and happy is every one that retains her.
- 19 The LORD by wisdom has founded the earth; by understanding has he established the heavens.
- 20 By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew. ¶
- 21 My son, let not them depart from your eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:
- 22 So shall they be life to your soul, and grace to your neck.
- 23 Then shall you walk in your way safely, and your foot shall not stumble.
- 24 When you lie down, you shall not be afraid: yes, you shall lie down, and your sleep shall be sweet.
- 25 Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it comes.
- 26 For the LORD shall be your confidence, and shall keep your foot from being taken. ¶
- 27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
- 28 Say not to your neighbor, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when you have it by you.
- 29 Devise not evil against your neighbor, seeing he dwells securely by you. ¶
- 30 Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done you no harm. ¶
- 31 Envy you not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways.
- 32 For the fraudulent is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the righteous. ¶
- 33 The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesses the habitation of the just.
- 34 Surely he scorns the scorners: but he gives grace to the lowly.
- 35 The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.
