Listen, sons, to a father’s instruction. Pay attention and know understanding;

My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father[ doth] his children,That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.

My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom,[ and] apply thine heart to understanding;Yea, if thou criest after knowledge,[ and] liftest up thy voice for understanding;If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as[ for] hid treasures;Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.

Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let[ them] slip.

Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed[ are they that] keep my ways.Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.Blessed[ is] the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.

Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.

My son, attend unto my wisdom,[ and] bow thine ear to my understanding:

Say unto wisdom, Thou[ art] my sister; and call understanding[ thy] kinswoman:

My son, keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:Bind them continually upon thine heart,[ and] tie them about thy neck.When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and[ when] thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.For the commandment[ is] a lamp; and the law[ is] light; and reproofs of instruction[ are] the way of life:
