Proverbs 22:4 in the New King James Version (NKJV) reads:

"By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches and honor and life."

This proverb teaches that humility combined with reverence for God (fear of the LORD) leads to blessings in multiple dimensions of life. The verse suggests that when we approach life with a humble spirit and proper reverence for God, we may receive:

1. Riches - which can refer to material prosperity or spiritual wealth

2. Honor - respect and good standing in society or before God

3. Life - which may mean not just physical longevity but also a fulfilling, purposeful existence

The verse emphasizes that true success and fulfillment come through spiritual virtues rather than pride or self-promotion. It's part of the broader wisdom literature in Proverbs that often contrasts the outcomes of humility versus pride, and proper reverence for God versus worldly approaches to life.
