20 My son, keep the rule of your father, and have in memory the teaching of your mother:

21 Keep them ever folded in your heart, and have them hanging round your neck.

22 In your walking, it will be your guide; when you are sleeping, it will keep watch over you; when you are awake, it will have talk with you.

23 For the rule is a light, and the teaching a shining light; and the guiding words of training are the way of life.
