Today is the third of the month.

Welcome to the Daily Audio Proverb. I'm Brian Hardin. It is fantastic to be here with you. We'll read obviously Proverbs 3 since today's the third. And we'll read from the contemporary English version today.

My child, remember my teachings and instructions and obey them completely.

They will help you live a long and prosperous life.

Let love and loyalty always show like a necklace and write them in your mind.

God and people will like you and consider you a success.

With all your heart, you must trust the Lord and not your own judgment.

Always let him lead you, and he will clear the road for you to follow.

Don't ever think that you are wise enough, but respect the Lord and stay away from evil.

This will make you healthy, and you will feel strong.

Honor the Lord by giving him your money and the first part of all your crops. Then you will have more grain and grapes than you will ever need.

My child, don't turn away or become bitter when the Lord corrects you.

The Lord corrects you.

The Lord corrects everyone he loves.

Just as parents correct their favorite child.

God blesses everyone who has wisdom and common sense.

Wisdom is worth more than silver. It makes you much richer than gold.

Wisdom is more valuable than precious jewels.

Nothing you want compares with her. In her right hand, wisdom holds a long life, and in her

left hand, our wealth and honor. Wisdom makes life pleasant and leads us safely along. Wisdom makes life pleasant and leads us safely along.

Wisdom is a life-giving tree, the source of happiness for all who hold on to her.

By his wisdom and knowledge, the Lord created heaven and earth.
