We will swallow them alive like Sheol, those full of vigor like those going down to the Pit.

So they will give life to you, and grace to adorn your neck.

None who go in to her will return, nor will they reach the paths of life.

for they will provide a long and full life, and they will add well-being to you.

She is like a tree of life to those who obtain her, and everyone who grasps hold of her will be blessed.

Listen, my child, and accept my words, so that the years of your life will be many.

for they are life to those who find them and healing to one’s entire body.

Guard your heart with all vigilance, for from it are the sources of life.

Lest she should make level the path leading to life, her paths are unstable but she does not know it.

For the one who finds me finds life and receives favor from the Lord.

For because of me your days will be many, and years will be added to your life.

The teaching of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the speech of the wicked conceals violence.

The fruit of the righteous is like a tree producing life, and the one who wins souls is wise.

In the path of righteousness there is life, but another path leads to death.

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is like a tree of life.

Instruction from the wise is like a life-giving fountain, to turn a person from deadly snares.

The fear of the Lord is like a life-giving fountain, to turn people from deadly snares.

Speech that heals is like a life-giving tree, but a perverse tongue breaks the spirit.

The path of life is upward for the wise person, to keep him from going downward to Sheol.

The person who hears the reproof that leads to life is at home among the wise.
