Listen to counsel and receive instruction
so that you may be wise later in life.

Watch the blameless and observe the upright,
for the man of peace will have a future.

Who has counted the dust of Jacob
or numbered the dust clouds of Israel?
Let me die the death of the upright;
let the end of my life be like theirs.

He fed you in the wilderness with manna that your fathers had not known, in order to humble and test you, so that in the end He might cause you to prosper.

If only they were wise, they would figure it out;
they would understand their fate.

Teach us to number our days carefully
so that we may develop wisdom in our hearts.

Satisfy us in the morning with Your faithful love
so that we may shout with joy and be glad all our days.

Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction,
and don’t reject your mother’s teaching,

My son, if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,

Listen, my sons, to a father’s discipline,
and pay attention so that you may gain understanding,

Anyone who listens to me is happy,
watching at my doors every day,
waiting by the posts of my doorway.

A fool’s way is right in his own eyes,
but whoever listens to counsel is wise.

“There was a rich man who would dress in purple and fine linen, feasting lavishly every day.
