Bible verse
Bind them always upon your heart; tie them around your neck.
Proverbs 6:21 · BSB
The verses around it, from Proverbs 6.
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that run swiftly to evil,
19 a false witness who gives false testimony, and one who stirs up discord among brothers.
20 My son, keep your father’s commandment, and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
21 Bind them always upon your heart; tie them around your neck.
22 When you walk, they will guide you; when you lie down, they will watch over you; when you awake, they will speak to you.
23 For this commandment is a lamp, this teaching is a light, and the reproofs of discipline are the way to life,
24 to keep you from the evil woman, from the smooth tongue of the adulteress.
25 Do not lust in your heart for her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes.
KJV
