^{21 Ref} My son, let them not depart from thine eyes; Keep sound wisdom and discretion:

^{22 Ref} So shall they be life unto thy soul, And grace to thy neck.

^{23 Ref} Then shalt thou walk in thy way securely, And thy foot shall not stumble.

^{24 Ref} When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: Yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.

^{25 Ref} Be not afraid of sudden fear, Neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh:

^{26 Ref} For Jehovah will be thy confidence, And will keep thy foot from being taken.
