Proverbs 4:1-4

1 Wisdom Is Supreme
Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction;
pay attention and gain understanding.

2 I give you sound learning,
so do not forsake my teaching.

3 When I was a boy in my father’s house,
still tender, and an only child of my mother,

4 he taught me and said,
“Lay hold of my words with all your heart;
keep my commands and you will live.
