Compare all
5 aTrust in the Lord with all your heart,
bAnd lean not on your own understanding; 
6 aIn all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall1 direct your paths. 
7 Do not be wise in your own aeyes;
Fear the Lord and depart from evil. 
8 It will be health to your1 flesh,
And astrength to your bones. 
9 aHonor the Lord with your possessions,
And with the firstfruits of all your increase; 
10 aSo your barns will be filled with plenty,
And your vats will overflow with new wine.
