Listen, my son, and be wise, and set your heart on the right path:

My son, listen and be wise. Set your heart on the right path.

Hear, my son, and be wise, and direct your heart in the way.

Listen, my son, and be wise; keep your mind on the right course.

Listen, my son, and be wise, and keep your heart on the right path!

My child, listen to me and do as I say, and you will have a long, good life.I will teach you wisdom’s ways and lead you in straight paths.When you walk, you won’t be held back; when you run, you won’t stumble.Take hold of my instructions; don’t let them go. Guard them, for they are the key to life.Don’t do as the wicked do, and don’t follow the path of evildoers.Don’t even think about it; don’t go that way. Turn away and keep moving.For evil people can’t sleep until they’ve done their evil deed for the day. They can’t rest until they’ve caused someone to stumble.They eat the food of wickedness and drink the wine of violence!The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, which shines ever brighter until the full light of day.But the way of the wicked is like total darkness. They have no idea what they are stumbling over.My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words.Don’t lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart,for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body.Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.

O my son, give me your heart. May your eyes take delight in following my ways.

Commit yourself to instruction; listen carefully to words of knowledge.

Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones. Learn from their ways and become wise!

Leave your simple ways behind, and begin to live; learn to use good judgment.”
