Proverbs 3:5-65 Trust in the LORD with all your heart

and lean not on your own understanding;6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

Trust - to go quickly for refuge; be confident, sure, bold, hope

in the LORD – Jehovah- the self-Existent or Eternal One

with all thine heart - used very widely for the feelings, the will and even the intellect

and lean - to support one's self -- lean, lie, rely, rest, stay

not unto thine own understanding - knowledge, meaning, wisdom

In all thy ways - a road (as trodden), a course of life or mode of action

acknowledge - to know (properly, to ascertain by seeing)

him and he shall direct - to be straight or even; to be or to make right, pleasant, prosperous

thy paths - a well-trodden road; manner, path, race, rank, highway

Proverbs 3:5-65 Trust in the LORD with all your heart

and lean not on your own understanding;6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
