Proverbs Chapter 4 - King James Strong Number Version

1: Hear, <H8085> ye children, <H1121> the instruction <H4148> of a father, <H0001> and attend <H7181> to know <H3045> understanding. <H0998>
2: For I give <H5414> you good <H2896> doctrine, <H3948> forsake <H5800> ye not my law. <H8451>
3: For I was my father's <H0001> son, <H1121> tender <H7390> and only <H3173> [beloved] in the sight <H6440> of my mother. <H0517>
4: He taught <H3384> me also, and said <H0559> unto me, Let thine heart <H3820> retain <H8551> my words: <H1697> keep <H8104> my commandments, <H4687> and live. <H2421>
5: Get <H7069> wisdom, <H2451> get <H7069> understanding: <H0998> forget <H7911> [it] not; neither decline <H5186> from the words <H0561> of my mouth. <H6310>
6: Forsake <H5800> her not, and she shall preserve <H8104> thee: love <H0157> her, and she shall keep <H5341> thee.
7: Wisdom <H2451> [is] the principal thing; <H7225> [therefore] get <H7069> wisdom: <H2451> and with all thy getting <H7075> get <H7069> understanding. <H0998>
8: Exalt <H5549> her, and she shall promote <H7311> thee: she shall bring thee to honour, <H3513> when thou dost embrace <H2263> her.
9: She shall give <H5414> to thine head <H7218> an ornament <H3880> of grace: <H2580> a crown <H5850> of glory <H8597> shall she deliver <H4042> to thee.
10: Hear, <H8085> O my son, <H1121> and receive <H3947> my sayings; <H0561> and the years <H8141> of thy life <H2416> shall be many. <H7235>
11: I have taught <H3384> thee in the way <H1870> of wisdom; <H2451> I have led <H1869> thee in right <H3476> paths. <H4570>
12: When thou goest, <H3212> thy steps <H6806> shall not be straitened; <H3334> and when thou runnest, <H7323> thou shalt not stumble. <H3782>
13: Take fast hold <H2388> of instruction; <H4148> let [her] not go: <H7503> keep <H5341> her; for she [is] thy life. <H2416>
14: Enter <H0935> not into the path <H0734> of the wicked, <H7563> and go <H0833> not in the way <H1870> of evil <H7451> [men].
15: Avoid <H6544> it, pass <H5674> not by it, turn <H7847> from it, and pass away. <H5674>
16: For they sleep <H3462> not, except they have done mischief; <H7489> and their sleep <H8142> is taken away, <H1497> unless they cause [some] to fall. <H3782><H3782>
17: For they eat <H3898> the bread <H3899> of wickedness, <H7562> and drink <H8354> the wine <H3196> of violence. <H2555>
18: But the path <H0734> of the just <H6662> [is] as the shining <H5051> light, <H0216> that shineth <H0215> more and more <H1980> unto the perfect <H3559> day. <H3117>
19: The way <H1870> of the wicked <H7563> [is] as darkness: <H0653> they know <H3045> not at what they stumble. <H3782>
20: My son, <H1121> attend <H7181> to my words; <H1697> incline <H5186> thine ear <H0241> unto my sayings. <H0561>
21: Let them not depart <H3868> from thine eyes; <H5869> keep <H8104> them in the midst <H8432> of thine heart. <H3824>
22: For they [are] life <H2416> unto those that find <H4672> them, and health <H4832> to all their flesh. <H1320>
23: Keep <H5341> thy heart <H3820> with all diligence; <H4929> for out of it [are] the issues <H8444> of life. <H2416>
24: Put away <H5493> from thee a froward <H6143> mouth, <H6310> and perverse <H3891> lips <H8193> put far <H7368> from thee.
25: Let thine eyes <H5869> look <H5027> right on, <H5227> and let thine eyelids <H6079> look straight <H3474> before thee.
26: Ponder <H6424> the path <H4570> of thy feet, <H7272> and let all thy ways <H1870> be established. <H3559>
27: Turn <H5186> not to the right hand <H3225> nor to the left: <H8040> remove <H5493> thy foot <H7272> from evil. <H7451>
