Bind them  (commandments)continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?

Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.

Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

He (God)layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.

My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son’s name, if thou canst tell?

He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.

They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.
