18She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, And happy are those who hold on to her. 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.King James Version

Chapter 3
18She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called blessed. 19The LORD by wisdom founded the earth; by understanding he established the heavens; 20by his knowledge the deeps broke open, and the clouds drop down the dew. 21My son, do not lose sight of these— keep sound wisdom and discretion, 22and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck. 23Then you will walk on your way securely, and your foot will not stumble.New International Version
Chapter 3
18She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed. 19By wisdom the LORD laid the earth's foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place;
20by his knowledge the watery depths were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew.
21My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion;
22they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck.
23Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble.
