4They will show people who do not yet know much how to do things that are smart. They will show young people how to become wise and how to make good plans/decisions.
5Those who are wise should also pay attention to these proverbs, in order to become more wise, and those who understand these teachings will receive good advice/guidance.
6Then they will be able to understand the meaning of proverbs and parables/metaphors, these wise sayings and ◄riddles/sayings that are difficult to understand►.
7If you want to be wise, you must begin by revering Yahweh. Only foolish people despise wisdom and good advice/discipline.
8My son, pay attention to what I, your father, am teaching you. And do not reject what your mother teaches you.
9What we teach you will make you respected like having a lovely turban around your head and like a beautiful necklace to put around your neck.
10My son, if sinners tempt/entice you to do what is wrong, say “No” to them.
