Now then, sons, listen to me, pay attention to the words of my mouth.
So now, my sons, listen to me and do not turn aside from the words of my mouth.
Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction. Pay attention, to gain understanding.
My children, I am writing these things to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an Intercessor with the Father—the righteous Messiah Yeshua.
My dear children! Again I suffer labor pains until Messiah is formed in you.
Come, children, listen to me: I will teach you the fear of Adonai.
A wise son heeds his father’s discipline, but a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.
