1Hear, [my] sons, the instruction of a father, And attend to know understanding:
2For I give you good doctrine; Forsake ye not my law.
3For I was a son unto my father, Tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.
4And he taught me, and said unto me: Let thy heart retain my words; Keep my commandments, and live;
5Get wisdom, get understanding; Forget not, neither decline from the words of my mouth;
