Proverbs 6:21-23
American Standard Version
21 Bind them continually upon thy heart;
Tie them about thy neck.
22 When thou walkest, it shall lead thee;
When thou [a]sleepest, it shall watch over thee;
And when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.
23 For [b]the commandment is a lamp; and [c]the law is light;
And reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
