Proverbs 3:23 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 3:23

Then shall thou walk in thy way safely
In the way of thy duty and business, without fear of any enemy; having in sight the Captain of salvation gone before, and walking in such ways of pleasantness and peace as Wisdom's are; and having such a lamp to the feet, and such a light unto the paths, as the Gospel and its doctrines be; and thy foot shall not stumble;
at the word and the truths of it, as some men do, being thereunto appointed; and at Christ, the stumbling stone laid in Zion, particularly at his justifying righteousness; see ( 1 Peter 2:8 ) ( Romans 9:33 ) .

21 My child, may they not escape from your {sight}; may you keep sound wisdom and prudence.
22 They shall be life for your soul and adornment for your neck.
23 Then you will walk in the confidence of your ways, and your foot will not stumble.
24 If you sit down, you will not panic, and [if] you lie down, then your sleep shall be sweet.
