Proverbs 3:2

The son will benefit from wisdom. Solomon mentions health and wealth.

Wisdom brings health, because wisdom teaches safe actions. A wise person eats good food and takes care of his body.

Wisdom brings wealth, because the wise person is careful. The wise person works hard and he does not waste money.

Do not think that health and wealth show wisdom. A thief can become wealthy, because he steals. An evil person can take money from other people. Sometimes God gives health and wealth to a person, but not always. ‘Remember God! He makes you able to get wealth…’ (Deuteronomy 8:18)

True health is not only the health of the body. Your relationship with God must also be healthy. In fact, your relationship with God is more important than your body. See Matthew 5:29-30.

Solomon was very wealthy. But he knew that true wealth is not money. See Proverbs 3:14-15. Wisdom is worth more than silver or gold. Wisdom is worth more than all our money.

v3 Never let love and trust leave you.

Wear them about your neck.

Write them on your heart.

v4 You will win love and honour.

God and people will show you love and honour
