A Father's Wise Advice
Chapter 4
-
My children, listen when your father corrects you. Pay attention and learn good judgment,
-
for I am giving you good guidance. Don't turn away from my instructions.
-
For I, too, was once my father's son, tenderly loved as my mother's only child.
-
My father taught me, "Take my words to heart. Follow my commands, and you will live.
-
Get wisdom; develop good judgment. Don't forget my words or turn away from them.
-
Don't turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you.
-
Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment.
-
If you prize wisdom, she will make you great. Embrace her, and she will honor you.
-
She will place a lovely wreath on your head; she will present you with a beautiful crown."
-
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.
-
Avoid all perverse talk; stay away from corrupt speech.
-
Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you.
-
Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path.
-
Don't get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.
