10 Hear, my son, and receive my sayings,
Prov. 3:2And the years of your life will be many.
11 I have 1 Sam. 12:23taught you in the way of wisdom;
I have led you in right paths.
12 When you walk, Job 18:7; Ps. 18:36your steps will not be hindered,
(Ps. 91:11); Prov. 3:23And when you run, you will not stumble.
13 Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go;
Keep her, for she is your life.
