The Bible (sometimes The Book or Good Book; from Greek (τα) βιβλια, (ta) biblia, (the) books, plural of βιβλιον, biblion, "book", originally a diminutive of βιβλος, biblos, which in turn is derived from βυβλος—byblos, meaning "papyrus", from the ancient Phoenician city of Byblos which exported this writing material), is the classical name for the Hebrew Bible of Judaism or the combination of the Old Testament and New Testament of Christianity ("The Bible" therefore actually refers to at least two different Bibles). It is thus applied to sacred scriptures. Many Christian English speakers refer to the Christian Bible as "the good book". For many people, their Bible is the revealed word of God or an authoritative record of the relationship between God, the world, and humankind. Both Bibles have been the most widely distributed of books. It has also been translated more times, and into more languages, than any other book. The complete Bible, or portions of it, have been translated into more than 2,100 languages. It is said that more than 5 billion copies of the Bible have been sold since 1815, making it the biggest selling book of all-time.

1: My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:

2: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.

3: Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

4: So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

5: Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

6: In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

7: Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

8: It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

9: Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:

10: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.

11: My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:

13: Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

14: For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.

20: By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.

21: My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:

22: So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck.

23: Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble.

24: When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall besweet.

25: Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh.

26: For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.

27: Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it.

28: Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.

29: Devise not evil against thy neighbour, seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.

30: Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm.

31: Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways.

32: For the froward is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the righteous.

34: Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly.
