1
My son, don't forget my teaching, keep my commands in your heart;
2
for they will add to you many days, years of life and peace.
3
Do not let grace and truth leave you -bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart.
4
Then you will win favor and esteem in the sight of God and of people.
5
Trust in ADONAI with all your heart; do not rely on your own understanding.
6
In all your ways acknowledge him; then he will level your paths.
