How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?

My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding:

Exalt her (Wisdom), and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

He (the LORD) layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: He is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.

Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:

Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.

Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.

Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.
