My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words.
Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days,
My people, hear my teaching; listen to the words of my mouth.
Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding—
for it is pleasing when you keep them in your heart and have all of them ready on your lips.
My son, pay attention to my wisdom, turn your ear to my words of insight,
My son, keep my words and store up my commands within you.
Give ear and come to me; listen, that you may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David.
While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!”
