Understand craftiness, ye simple: and ye foolish, understand the heart

The law of Jehovah is blameless, turning back the soul; the testimonies of Jehovah being faithful, making wise the simple.

The entrance of thy words will enlighten; causing the simple to understand.

And I shall see among the simple, I shall perceive among the sons a youth wanting heart,

I loved those loving me: and they seeking me shall find me.

Come, ye sons, hear to me: I will teach you the fear of Jehovah.

In what shall a youth cleanse his way? To watch according to thy word.

Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and thy heart shall do thee good in the days of thy youth, and go in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: and know thou, that for all these God will bring thee into judgment

And remember him creating thee in the days of thy youth, till even when the days of evil shall not come, and the years draw near in which thou shalt say, Not to me delight in them;

And flee youthful, eager desires: and follow justice, faith, love, peace, with them calling upon the Lord from a pure heart.

The younger men likewise beseech to be of sound mind.
