3For I was a son unto my father, tender and an only one in the sight of my mother.
4And he taught me, and said unto me: 'Let thy heart hold fast my words, keep my commandments, and live;
5Get wisdom, get understanding; forget not, neither decline from the words of my mouth;
6Forsake her not, and she will preserve thee; love her, and she will keep thee.
