Proverbs 22:17

17 Open your ears, and hear the words of wise people, and set your mind on the knowledge I give you.

Proverbs 22:17 In-Context

15 Foolishness is firmly attached to a child's heart. Spanking will remove it far from him.
16 Oppressing the poor for profit [or] giving to the rich certainly leads to poverty.
17 Open your ears, and hear the words of wise people, and set your mind on the knowledge I give you.
18 It is pleasant if you keep them in mind [so that] they will be on the tip of your tongue,
19 so that your trust may be in the LORD. Today I have made them known to you, especially to you.
