Provérbios 4

1 Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father,

And attend to know understanding.

2 For I give you good doctrine,

Forsake you not my law.

3 For I was my father’s son,

Tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.

4 He taught me also, and said unto me,

Let thine heart retain my words:

Keep my commandments, and live.

5 Get wisdom, get understanding:

Forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.

6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee:

Love her, and she shall keep thee.
