1Hear, ye sons, the instruction of a father, And give attention to know understanding.
2For good learning I have given to you, My law forsake not.
3For, a son I have been to my father — tender, And an only one before my mother.
4And he directeth me, and he saith to me: 'Let thy heart retain my words, Keep my commands, and live.
5Get wisdom, get understanding, Do not forget, nor turn away From the sayings of my mouth.
6Forsake her not, and she doth preserve thee, Love her, and she doth keep thee.
7The first thing is wisdom — get wisdom, And with all thy getting get understanding.
8Exalt her, and she doth lift thee up, She honoureth thee, when thou dost embrace her.
9She giveth to thy head a wreath of grace, A crown of beauty she doth give thee freely.
10Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And years of life are multiplied to thee.
