1 Hear, you sons, the discipline of a father; and hearken to know discernment;
2 for I give you good doctrine: forsake not my torah.
3 For I was a son of my father - tender; an only at the face of my mother:
4 and teaches me and says to me, O that your heart uphold my words; guard my misvoth and live.
5 Chattelize wisdom; chattelize discernment: neither forget nor spread from the sayings of my mouth.
6 Forsake her not, and she guards you; love her, and she guards you:
7 the firstfruits, wisdom; chattelize wisdom: and with all your chattelizing chattelize discernment.
8 Exalt her and she exalts you; she honors you when you embrace her:
9 she gives your head a wreath of charism; with a crown of beauty she shields you.
10 Hear, O my son, and take my sayings; and abound the years of your life:
11 I teach you in the way of wisdom; I aim you in routes of straightness:
12 so that as you walk, your paces constrain not; and as you run, you stumble not.
