Proverbs 4:1 In-Context

1 My children, listen to a father's teaching. Pay attention and gain understanding.
2 I give you good advice. So don't turn away from what I teach you.
3 I was once a young boy in my father's house. I was my mother's only child.
4 My father taught me. He said, "Hold on to my words with all your heart. Keep my commands. Then you will live.
5 Get wisdom. Get understanding. Don't forget my words. Don't turn away from them.
