Provérbios 7:1

1 Filho meu, guarda as minhas palavras, e entesoura contigo os meus mandamentos.

Provérbios 7:1 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 7:1

My son, keep my words
Doctrines and instructions; which, as a father to a son, or a master to his scholars, he had delivered; these he would have him observe and attend to; and lay up my commandments with thee:
as a treasure in his heart, to be brought out upon occasion; to be kept as valuable, and made use of as an antidote against and a preservative from sinning; see ( Psalms 119:11 ) . The Septuagint and Arabic versions add, what is not in the Hebrew text,

``son, honour the Lord, and thou shalt be strong;''

the Arabic adds,

``and he shall strengthen thee; and fear none besides him.''

Provérbios 7:1 In-Context

1 Filho meu, guarda as minhas palavras, e entesoura contigo os meus mandamentos.

2 Observa os meus mandamentos e vive; guarda a minha lei, como a menina dos teus olhos.

3 Ata-os aos teus dedos, escreve-os na tábua do teu coração.

4 Dize � sabedoria: Tu és minha irmã; e chama ao entendimento teu amigo íntimo,

5 para te guardarem da mulher alheia, da adúltera, que lisonjeia com as suas palavras.
