Lamentations 3:22-23
Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
Do not forget the teaching. Keep God's commandments. For they will add length of days, years of life and peace. Do not let kindness and truth leave you. Bind them around your neck and write them on the tablet of your heart. You will find favor and have a good reputation with God and man. Trust in the Lord will all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight (to be right, be straight, be level, be upright, be just, be lawful, be smooth. Do not be wise in your own eyes.
Fear the Lord and turn away from evil. Fear and repentance are healing to your body and refreshment to your bones. Honor the Lord from your wealth and from the first of all your produce. So your barns will be filled with plenty and your vats overflowing with new wine. This is how a man who finds wisdom and gains understanding benefits: 1. The profit and gain of these are better than silver and fine gold. 2. These are more valuable than precious jewels 3. Nothing you desire, like cars, houses, wealth can compare to the wealth wisdom and understanding bring. 4. Long life is in her right hand 5. Riches and honor are in her left hand 6. The ways of wisdom and understanding are pleasant, the paths are peace. 7. They are a tree of life to those who take hold 8. Happiness is theirs who never let go understanding.
