Provérbios 4

1 Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding. 2 For I give you a good gift; forsake ye not my law. 3 For I also was a son obedient to my father, and loved in the sight of my mother: 4 who spoke and instructed me, saying, Let our speech be fixed in thine heart, keep our commandments, forget them not: 5 and do not neglect the speech of my mouth.*4. 5 See Appendix - Alexandrian codex has: "Get wisdom, get understanding, forget not, nor decline from the words of my mouth." 6 And forsake it not, and it shall cleave to thee: love it, and it shall keep thee.
