Deuteronomy 29:9

Presbyterian
SCRIPTURE

"Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that ye may prosper in all that ye do." — Deuteronomy 29:9 (ASV)

That ye may prosper - literally, "that ye may act wisely." The connection of the two ideas of wisdom in conduct and prosperity in circumstances is noteworthy.
