Proverbs 22:4-6

The Message

⁴ The payoff for meekness and Fear-of-God
    is plenty and honor and a satisfying life.

⁵ The perverse travel a dangerous road, potholed and mud-slick;
    if you know what’s good for you, stay clear of it.

⁶ Point your kids in the right direction—
    when they’re old they won’t be lost.
