My sons, listen to a father’s teaching. Pay attention and gain understanding.

Don’t let them out of your sight. Keep them in your heart.

“ My children, listen to me. Blessed are those who keep my ways.Listen to my teaching and be wise. Don’t turn away from it.Blessed are those who listen to me. They watch every day at my doors. They wait beside my doorway.Those who find me find life. They receive blessing from the Lord.But those who don’t find me harm only themselves. Everyone who hates me loves death.”

My sons, listen to me. Pay attention to what I say.

My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight. Hold on to good sense and the understanding of what is right.

Pay attention and listen to the sayings of wise people. Apply your heart to the sayings I teach.It is pleasing when you keep them in your heart. Have all of them ready on your lips.You are the one I am teaching today. That’s because I want you to trust in the Lord.I have written 30 sayings for you. They will give you knowledge and good advice.I am teaching you to be honest and to speak the truth. Then you can give honest reports to those you serve.

Be sure that you don’t say no to the one who speaks. People did not escape when they said no to the one who warned them on earth. And what if we turn away from the one who warns us from heaven? How much less will we escape!
