The Rewards of Wisdom
19The Lord founded the earth by wisdom, He established the heavens by understanding.
20By His knowledge the ocean depths were burst open, And the clouds drip with dew.
21My son, see that they do not escape from your sight; Comply with sound wisdom and discretion,
22And they will be life to your soul And adornment to your neck.
23Then you will walk in your way securely, And your foot will not stumble.
24When you lie down, you will not be afraid; When you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
25Do not be afraid of sudden danger, Nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes;
26For the Lord will be your confidence, And will keep your foot from being caught.
Proverbs 3:19-26 (NASB)
