A wise son heareth his father’s instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.

Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.

All the words of my (Wisdom)mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.

Bind them (Commandments) upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.

For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, and He pondereth all his goings.

My son, attend to My words; incline thine ear unto My sayings.
