Because your ears were shut to my voice; no one gave attention to my out-stretched hand;

And he gave me teaching, saying to me, Keep my words in your heart; keep my rules so that you may have life:

A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitter pain to her who gave him birth.

Let your father and your mother be glad, let her who gave you birth have joy.

They have overcome me, you will say, and I have no pain; they gave me blows without my feeling them: when will I be awake from my wine? I will go after it again.

Then looking at it, I gave thought: I saw, and I got teaching from it.
