Proverbs 4:1-4

¹Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction;

pay attention and gain understanding.

²For I give you sound teaching;

do not abandon my directive.

³When I was a son to my father,

tender and the only child of my mother,

⁴he taught me and said,

“Let your heart lay hold of my words;

keep my commands and you will live.
