Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. (niv)

Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirrorand, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it— not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it— they will be blessed in what they do. (niv)

Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children,to be self- controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.Similarly, encourage the young men to be self-controlled. (niv)

Do not remember the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you, Lord, are good. (niv)

“ Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. (niv)

and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. (niv)

Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord. (niv)

I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. (niv)

My son, if sinful men entice you, do not give in to them. (niv)

Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers. (niv)

Oh, how I love your law! I meditate on it all day long.Your commands are always with me and make me wiser than my enemies.I have more insight than all my teachers, for I meditate on your statutes.I have more understanding than the elders, for I obey your precepts.I have kept my feet from every evil path so that I might obey your word.I have not departed from your laws, for you yourself have taught me.How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!I gain understanding from your precepts; therefore I hate every wrong path.Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. (niv)

You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. (niv)

The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes.The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever. The decrees of the Lord are firm, and all of them are righteous.They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb.By them your servant is warned; in keeping them there is great reward. (niv)

Listen, my son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many.I instruct you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths.When you walk, your steps will not be hampered; when you run, you will not stumble.Hold on to instruction, do not let it go; guard it well, for it is your life.Do not set foot on the path of the wicked or walk in the way of evildoers.Avoid it, do not travel on it; turn from it and go on your way.For they cannot rest until they do evil; they are robbed of sleep till they make someone stumble.They eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence. (niv)

Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction; pay attention and gain understanding. (niv)

These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts.Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates. (niv)

My son, keep your father’s command and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.Bind them always on your heart; fasten them around your neck.When you walk, they will guide you; when you sleep, they will watch over you; when you awake, they will speak to you.For this command is a lamp, this teaching is a light, and correction and instruction are the way to life,keeping you from your neighbor’s wife, from the smooth talk of a wayward woman.Do not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes.For a prostitute can be had for a loaf of bread, but another man’s wife preys on your very life.Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned?Can a man walk on hot coals without his feet being scorched?So is he who sleeps with another man’s wife; no one who touches her will go unpunished.People do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his hunger when he is starving.Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold, though it costs him all the wealth of his house.But a man who commits adultery has no sense; whoever does so destroys himself.Blows and disgrace are his lot, and his shame will never be wiped away.For jealousy arouses a husband’s fury, and he will show no mercy when he takes revenge.He will not accept any compensation; he will refuse a bribe, however great it is. (niv)

for giving prudence to those who are simple, knowledge and discretion to the young— (niv)

We will not hide them from their descendants; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our ancestors to teach their children,so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children.Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.They would not be like their ancestors— a stubborn and rebellious generation, whose hearts were not loyal to God, whose spirits were not faithful to him. (niv)

You who are young, be happy while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body, for youth and vigor are meaningless.Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of trouble come and the years approach when you will say,“ I find no pleasure in them”— (niv)

For you write down bitter things against me and make me reap the sins of my youth. (niv)

Now then, my sons, listen to me; do not turn aside from what I say.Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house,lest you lose your honor to others and your dignity to one who is cruel,lest strangers feast on your wealth and your toil enrich the house of another.At the end of your life you will groan, when your flesh and body are spent.You will say,“ How I hated discipline! How my heart spurned correction!I would not obey my teachers or turn my ear to my instructors.And I was soon in serious trouble in the assembly of God’s people.”Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well.Should your springs overflow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares?Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers.May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.A loving doe, a graceful deer— may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love.Why, my son, be intoxicated with another man’s wife? Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman?For your ways are in full view of the Lord, and he examines all your paths.The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast.For lack of discipline they will die, led astray by their own great folly. (niv)

“ Now, Lord, the God of Israel, keep for your servant David my father the promises you made to him when you said,‘ You shall never fail to have a successor to sit before me on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants are careful in all they do to walk before me according to my law, as you have done.’ (niv)

“ Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. (niv)

When a period of feasting had run its course, Job would make arrangements for them to be purified. Early in the morning he would sacrifice a burnt offering for each of them, thinking,“ Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.” This was Job’s regular custom. (niv)

I saw among the simple, I noticed among the young men, a youth who had no sense. (niv)

When he takes the throne of his kingdom, he is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law, taken from that of the Levitical priests. (niv)
