5 For thou art my hope, O Lord Jehovah, my confidence from my youth.
10 Then remove discontent from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh; for childhood and youth are vanity.
6 The younger men in like manner exhort to be discreet:
1 Proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:
2 to know wisdom and instruction; to discern the words of understanding;
3 to receive the instruction of wisdom, righteousness and judgment, and equity;
4 to give prudence to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
30 Even the youths shall faint and shall tire, and the young men shall stumble and fall;
31 but they that wait upon Jehovah shall renew {their} strength: they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not tire; they shall walk, and not faint.
11 Thy *word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against thee.
11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
7 Only be strong and very courageous, that thou mayest take heed to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded thee. Turn not from it to the right or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
8 This book of the law shall not depart from thy mouth; and thou shalt meditate upon it day and night, that thou mayest take heed to do according to all that is written therein; for then shalt thou have good success in thy ways, and then shalt thou prosper.
9 Have I not commanded thee: Be strong and courageous? Be not afraid, neither be dismayed; for Jehovah thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
12 Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, -
13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens.
13 As in the day, let us walk becomingly; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and lasciviousness, not in strife and emulation.
13 Better is a poor but wise youth than an old and foolish king, who knoweth no more how to be admonished.
1 And remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, of which thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;
17 As for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
18 And at the end of the days that the king had said he should bring them in, the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.
19 And the king spoke with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: and they stood before the king.
9 BETH. Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his path? by taking heed according to thy word.
12 Let no one despise thy youth, but be a model of the believers, in word, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
1 And remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, of which thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;
2 before the sun, and the light, and the moon, and the stars, be darkened, and the clouds return after the rain;
3 in the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows are darkened,
19 Thou, my son, hear and be wise, and direct thy heart in the way.
20 Be not among winebibbers, among riotous eaters of flesh.
21 For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty; and drowsiness clotheth with rags.
22 Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old.
28 And it shall come to pass afterwards {that} I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.
29 Yea, even upon the bondmen and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my Spirit.
5 Likewise {ye} younger, be subject to {the} elder, and all of you bind on humility towards one another; for God sets himself against {the} proud, but to {the} humble gives grace.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in {the due} time;
9 Rejoice, young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thine eyes; but know that for all these {things} God will bring thee into judgment.
6 And I said, Alas, Lord Jehovah! behold, I cannot speak; for I am a child.
7 But Jehovah said unto me, Say not, I am a child; for thou shalt go to whomsoever I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.
8 Be not afraid of them; for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith Jehovah.
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you in your latter end a hope.
12 And ye shall call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you;
13 and ye shall seek me and find me, for ye shall search for me with all your heart,
14 and I will be found of you, saith Jehovah. And I will turn your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith Jehovah; and I will bring you again into the place whence I have caused you to be carried away captive.
27 It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth:
14 I have written to you, fathers, because ye have known him {that is} from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and ye have overcome the wicked {one}.
29 The glory of young men is their strength; and the beauty of old men is the grey head.
1 Children, obey your parents in {the} Lord, for this is just.
2 Honour thy father and thy mother, which is the first commandment with a promise,
3 that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest be long-lived on the earth.
1 Children, obey your parents in {the} Lord, for this is just.
2 Honour thy father and thy mother, which is the first commandment with a promise,
