| Get wisdom; get insight; do not forget, and do not turn away from the words of my mouth. | Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. |
| The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom, and whatever you get, get insight. | Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. |
| Hear, my son, and accept my words, that the years of your life may be many. | Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And the years of your life will be many. |
| I have taught you the way of wisdom; I have led you in the paths of uprightness. | I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. |
| 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. | My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart. |
| Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life. | Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life. |
| Put away from you crooked speech, and put devious talk far from you. | Put away from you a deceitful mouth, And put perverse lips far from you. |
| Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you. | Let your eyes look straight ahead, And your eyelids look right before you. |
| Ponder the path of your feet; then all your ways will be sure. | Ponder the path of your feet, And let all your ways be established. |
| Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your foot away from evil. | Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil. |
