Apply your
heart to instruction and your ear to words of knowledge.
Do not
withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die
My son, if
your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad. My inmost being will exult when
your lips speak what is right.
Let not your heart envy sinners, but continue in the fear of the Lord all the
day.
Surely there is a future, and your hope will not be cut off.
Buy truth,
and do not sell it; buy wisdom, instruction, and understanding.
The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son
will be glad in him.
Let your father and mother be glad; let her who bore you rejoice.
