Proverbs 22 The Voice (VOICE) We do not like or want to believe it, but there are limits to what humans can accomplish. Whatever wisdom and knowledge we think we possess is nothing compared to God’s. Whatever plans we make will come to nothing unless they line up with God’s plans and purposes for us. 22 A good reputation is preferable to riches, and the approval of others is better than precious silver or gold. 2 Rich and poor have something in common: both are created by the Eternal. 3 Prudent people see trouble coming and hide, but the naive walk right into it and take a beating. 4 A humble person who fears the Eternal can expect to receive wealth, honor, and life. 5 Thorny branches and traps lie ahead for those who follow perverse paths; those who want to preserve themselves will steer clear of them. 6 Teach a child how to follow the right way; even when he is old, he will stay on course.
