My son, hear the instruction of your father, and forsake not the law of your mother;

If they say, Come with us, let us lie in wait for blood, we will watch secretly for the innocent without cause;

And they lie in wait for their own blood; they watch secretly for their own lives.

My son, forget not my law; but let your heart keep my commandments;

She is a tree of life to those who lay hold upon her; and happy is everyone who keeps her.

When you lie down, you shall not be afraid; yea, you shall lie down, and your sleep shall be sweet.

For I give you good teaching; do not forsake my law.

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down;

My son, keep your father's commandments, and do not forsake the law of your mother;

For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life;

Keep my commandments and live; and keep my law as the pupil of your eye.

The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood; but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.

The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

A faithful witness will not lie, but a false witness will speak lies.

A fool has no delight in understanding, but only that his heart may lay itself bare.

Wicked one, do not lie in ambush at the dwelling of the righteous; do not spoil his resting place;

and, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face of it, and its stone wall was broken down.

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down;

Those who forsake the law praise the wicked; but those who keep the law plead against them.

Whoever keeps the law is a wise son, but a companion of gluttons shames his father.

He who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is a hateful thing.

Where there is no vision, the people perish; but he who keeps the law, he is blessed.

A man's pride shall bring him low; but honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.

If you have done foolishly in lifting yourself up, or if you have thought evil, lay your hand on your mouth.

lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.

She opens her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
