Proverbs 22:17-21

¹⁷Incline thine ear to the words of wise men: hear also my word, and apply thine heart,

¹⁸that thou mayest know that they are good: and if thou lay them to heart, they shall also gladden thee on thy lips.

¹⁹That thy hope may be in the Lord, and he may make thy way known to thee.

²⁰And do thou too repeatedly record them for thyself on the table of thine heart, for counsel and knowledge.

²¹I therefore teach thee truth, and knowledge good to hear; that thou mayest answer words of truth to them that question thee.
