- Get wisdom; get insight;
do not forget, and do not turn away from the words of my mouth. - The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom,
and whatever you get, get insight. - Hear, my son, and accept my words,
that the years of your life may be many. - I have taught you the way of wisdom;
I have led you in the paths of uprightness. - My son, be attentive to my words;
incline your ear to my sayings.
Let them not escape from your sight;
keep them within your heart. - Keep your heart with all vigilance,
for from it flow the springs of life. - Put away from you crooked speech,
and put devious talk far from you. - Let your eyes look directly forward,
and your gaze be straight before you. - Ponder the path of your feet;
then all your ways will be sure. - Do not swerve to the right or to the left;
turn your foot away from evil.
