Proverbs 22:17-21

NHEB(i) 17 The words of the wise: Incline your ear and hear my words, and apply your heart to my instruction. 18 For it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you, if all of them are ready on your lips. 19 That your trust may be in the LORD, I teach you today, even you. 20 Haven't I written to you thirty excellent things of counsel and knowledge, 21 To teach you truth, reliable words, to give sound answers to the ones who sent you?
