1 Hear, ye sons, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.

2 For I gave to you good instruction; ye shall not forsake my law.

3 For I was son to my father; tender and only before the face of my mother.

4 And he taught me, and he will say to me, Thy heart shall hold fast my words: watch my commands and live.

5 Obtain wisdom, obtain understanding: thou shalt not forget, and thou shalt not decline from the words of my mouth.
