And now, ye sons, hear to me, and ye shall not depart from the words of my mouth.
Hear, ye sons, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.
See that ye refuse not him speaking. For if they escaped not, having refused him giving an intimation of the divine will on earth, much more we, who having turned back from him from the heavens:
And now, ye sons, hear to me, and attend to the sayings of my mouth.
They shall not turn aside from thine eyes; watch them in the midst of thy heart
My son, they shall not depart from thine eyes: keep counsel and meditation:
I departed not from thy judgments, for thou didst teach me.
