The use of difference translation
is the same as commentaries and other Christian works.
They are for the furthering of the Gospel
1
Cor 15:1-11. Remember If you like Good preaching
or teaching of
God’s word, a Good translation, Good commentary
are like Good expounding of God’s word. All of the works are of man, men
maybe be inspired of God and again they may not. Their speaking or their
written word can not
condict the Written word. 2
Peter 1:20. I am sure many where blessed of
God.
The Holy Ghost worked through many of these
students of God’s word.
May The Holy Spirit
bless you study of The Bible! Let’s not Quince the Holy Spirit by limiting
what God
can use to work in peoples lives.
Romans
8:28; Eph 4:30
World English Bible (WEB)
The World English Bible (WEB) is a
Public Domain (no copyright) Modern English translation of the Holy Bible,
based on the American Standard Version of
the Holy Bible first published in 1901, the Biblia Hebraica
Stutgartensa Old Testament, and the Greek
Majority Text New Testament. It is in draft form, and currently being
edited for accuracy and readability. The New
Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs are close to how they will read
when they are finished, but most of the Old
Testament still contains some archaic grammar that will be revised.
For more information, please see the World
English Bible Frequently Asked Questions. Comments on the World English
Bible should be directed to editors@eBible.org.
There is also a Hebrew Names Version
of the World English Bible that is created by substituting traditional
Hebrew names and phrases for equivalent Greek/English names and phrases.
Although there are Hebrew versions
of some names and a few differing translational
choices where more than one rendition is reasonable; the meaning
of the Holy Scriptures remains the same.
Like the WEB, the HNV is in draft form right now. It is automatically updated
as the World English Bible and the substitution list are updated.

Facts:
1 This verse is a key verse.
3:5, 6 These verses express a firm admonition
(v. 5) and gracious assurance (v. 6).
Throughout Proverbs one sees the reward of trusting in (lit. “clinging
to,”
with the idea of setting one’s hope and confidence upon) the Lord as opposed
to the futility of resting in one’s own wisdom and seeking one’s own way
( Prov. 1:30, 31; 12:15; 14:12, 14; 16:2,
9, 25; 21:2; 30:12). God designed His
creation to have a dependency upon Him. Even the ordinary decisions of
a day
need the counsel of God, who instructs His creation to consult Him about
even
the most minute details, whether in the spiritual or secular realm. God
promises
to communicate in return. The Fall itself was precipitated when man sought
to
live independently of God, and this human independence continues at the
heart
of sinful rebellion today. The word “acknowledge” is an expressive term
which
includes not only the accumulation of learning but also the practical and
experiential action based upon one’s theoretical knowledge.

"My son, don't take lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint
when you are reproved by him;
6 For whom the Lord loves, he chastens, And scourges every son whom
he receives."
7 It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with
children,
8 But if you are without discipline, whereof all have been made partakers,
then are you illegitimate, and not children.
9 Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and
we paid them respect.
Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and
live?
10 For they indeed, for a few days, punished us as seemed good to
them; but he for our profit,
that we may be partakers of his holiness.
11 All chastening seems for the present to be not joyous but grievous;
yet afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of
righteousness to those who have been exercised thereby.
12 Therefore, lift up the hands that hang down and the feeble knees,
13 and make straight paths for your feet, that that which is lame
may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.
5. Despise or weary may be translated reject.
Pro 3:12 For
whom Yahweh loves, he reproves; Even as a father reproves the son in whom
he delights.

your God chastens you.
6 You
shall keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, to walk in his ways, and
to fear him.
The first step in walking in His ways
is trusting in the Lord Jesus finished work. Lean not to your own understanding.
Your own righteousness will not obtain the first voucher on the way to
heaven.
To miss Hell ( the lake of Fire.). All your
own righteous will get you is a place in Hell.
Eze 33:13 WEB When I tell the righteous,
that he shall surely live; if he trust to his righteousness,
and commit iniquity, none of his righteous deeds shall be remembered;
but in his iniquity that he has committed, therein shall he die.
14 Again,
when I say to the wicked, You shall surely die; if he turn from his sin,
and do that which is lawful and right;
Rev 20:13 WEB The
sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who
were in them.
They were judged, each one according to his works.
14 Death
and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death,
the lake of fire.
Their self righteousness ( works ) was not
enough to keep the out of Hell.
They were judged according to their being
good to their neighbors, Their church membership, Their being Baptized,
Taking part in the Lord’s Supper and
many workers of the lord will not be saved. God does the saving. If it
were our works that gave the lost salvation, it would not be God’s work
Jesus paid the price in
full.
Mat 7:21 WEB Not everyone who says to me,
'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven;

Lord, didn't we prophesy in your name,
in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?'
23 Then
I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity.'
24 "Everyone
therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them,
I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.
Why not put you Salvation on the solid
Rock of Jesus.
1 Cor 6:20
WEB for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body
and in your spirit, which are God's.
1 Cor 7:23 WEB You
were bought with a price. Don't become bondservants of men.
24 Brothers, let each man, in whatever
condition he was called, stay in that condition with God.
Make Christ Your Lord An Master. Just ask him.
1 Cor 2:12 WEB But we received, not the spirit
of the world, but the Spirit which is
from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by
God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in
words which man's wisdom teaches,
but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with
spiritual things.
14 Now the natural man doesn't receive
the things of God's Spirit,
for they are foolishness to him, and he can't know them,
because they are spiritually discerned.
15 But he who is spiritual discerns
all things, and he himself is judged by no one.
Isa 60:19 The sun shall be no more your light by day; neither for
brightness shall the moon give light to you:
but Yahweh will be to you an everlasting light, and your God your glory.
