A truthful witness will save lives,
When true it delivers the soul;
Honor for the body survives,
Letting His Spirit in control.
 
Anyone who would breathe out lies,
Heart and mind is full of deceit;
Working for Satan in disguise,
Temptation causes them to cheat.
 
If you have the fear of the Lord,
You will have a strong confidence;
His children are in one accord,
And sheltered with a good defense.
 
For having the fear of the Lord,
You are near the fountain of life;
The snares of death will be ignored,
Avoiding the toils and strife.
 
In a multitude of people,
Will be the glory of the King;
When they worship in His temple,
By praising Him in song they sing.
 
Without having any people,
The prince of darkness is destroyed;
No one to be a disciple,
The power of light is enjoyed.
 
Whoever is slow to anger,
Will have a great understanding;
Their problems will seem meager,
As the stress is not demanding.
 
For a tranquil heart is at peace,
As it gives the flesh a new life;
But hasty tempers will not cease,
Giving fuel to toils and strife.
 
Envy will make the bones to rot,
Oppression will cause desire;
An obsession to what is sought,
Whatever it may require.
 
Having wisdom will always rest,
In giving you a peace-filled heart;
Dealing wisely to do your best,
From evil ways you can depart.
