Proverbs 4:9

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

She will place on your head a fair garland; she will bestow on you a beautiful crown.”

See the chapter Copy

for they are a fair garland for your head, and pendants for your neck.

And when the chief Shepherd is manifested you will obtain the unfading crown of glory.

In that day the Lord of hosts will be a crown of glory, and a diadem of beauty, to the remnant of his people;

A hoary head is a crown of glory; it is gained in a righteous life.

He who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I myself conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne.

but let it be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable jewel of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious.

and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck.

Hear, my son, and accept my words, that the years of your life may be many.

I give you also what you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that no other king shall compare with you, all your days.

The simple acquire folly, but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
