And now hear me, O sons, and do not depart from the words of my mouth.
Sons, hear the instruction of a father, and listen in order to know understanding.
See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape, those who refused him that spoke on earth, much more we shall not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from Heaven,
And now listen to me, sons, and attend to the words of my mouth.
Let them not depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart.
My son, do not let them depart from your eyes; keep sound wisdom and judgment,
I have not departed from Your judgments; for You have taught me.
