because length of days and years of life and peace will be added to you.” (Proverbs 3:1, 2)

If we do this, “length of days and years of life and peace will be added” to us. Yes, even now we can enjoy a peaceful life and can avoid pursuits that expose us to the danger of early death that often befalls evildoers. Moreover, we can entertain the hope of eternal life in a peaceful new world.​—Proverbs 1:24-31; 2:21, 22.
