Proverbs 9:11 - The Way of Wisdom
For by me your days shall be multiplied, and the years of your life shall be increased

This bible verse has been derived from [King James 2000 Bible](https://biblehub.com/kj2000/proverbs/9.htm) 

If you can take a closer look at Proverbs chapter 9 from verse 10 to 12, and take a bible study you will understand verse 11 better which talks more about: 

>(11) **For by me thy days shall be multiplied . . .**--The connection of this verse with the preceding one is as follows:--It is true wisdom to fear and know God, for thus length of years and life that is worth living are to be gained. (Comp. [Proverbs 3:2.](https://biblehub.com/proverbs/3-2.htm))

- Ellicott's commentary 

>Verse 11. - The parenthetical explanation being concluded, in which Wisdom has intimated why it is useless to appeal to the scorner and the wilful sinner, she now resumes the direct address interrupted at ver. 7, presenting a forcible reason for the advice given in ver. 6, though there is still some connection with ver. 10, as it is from the wisdom that comes from the fear of the Lord that the blessings now mentioned spring. For by me thy days shall be multiplied (see [Proverbs 3:2](https://biblehub.com/proverbs/3-2.htm), 16; [Proverbs 4:10,](https://biblehub.com/proverbs/4-10.htm) where long life is promised as a reward for the possession and practice of wisdom). The same result is attributed to the fear of God ([Proverbs 10:27](https://biblehub.com/proverbs/10-27.htm); [Proverbs 14:27](https://biblehub.com/proverbs/14-27.htm), etc.). In verse. 6 the address is in the plural; here it is singular. A similar interchange is found in Proverbs 5:7, 8

- Pulpit commentary 

>***…10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. 11 [For through wisdom your days will be multiplied, and years will be added to your life.](https://biblehub.com/hebrew/%E1%B8%87%C3%AE%20(Prep::%201cs)%20--) 12 If you are wise, you are wise to your own advantage; but if you scoff, you alone will bear the consequences.…***
