9She will give to thy head a graceful wreath, A beautiful crown will she bestow upon thee.
10Hear, O my son! and receive my sayings! So shall the years of thy life be many.
11I have taught thee the way of wisdom, I have guided thee in the right path.
12When thou goest, thy steps shall not be confined; And, when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
13Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go; Keep her, for she is thy life.
14Enter not into the path of the wicked, And go not in the way of evil men;
