Genesis 49:2

“Gather together and hear, O sons of Jacob;
And listen to Israel your father.

Come, you children, listen to me;
I will teach you the fear of the Lord.

Hear, my son, your father’s instruction
And do not forsake your mother’s teaching;

Hear, O sons, the instruction of a father,
And give attention that you may gain understanding,

My son, give attention to my wisdom,
Incline your ear to my understanding;

My son, observe the commandment of your father
And do not forsake the teaching of your mother;

My son, keep my words
And treasure my commandments within you.

Now therefore, my sons, listen to me,
And pay attention to the words of my mouth.

“Now therefore, O sons, listen to me,
For blessed are they who keep my ways.

Listen to your father who begot you,
And do not despise your mother when she is old.

Give me your heart, my son,
And let your eyes delight in my ways.
