And now listen to Me, O sons, and attend to the words of My mouth:
Who is the man who desires life, who loves days in order to see good?
A wise son hears his father’s instruction, but a scorner does not hear rebuke.
Sons, hear the instruction of a father, pay attention to know understanding.
And hear me now, O sons, and do not depart from the words of my mouth.
My children, for whom I again travail until Christ should be formed to you,
My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you do not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous One.
