My son, give ear to the training of your father, and do not give up the teaching of your mother:
So your store-houses will be full of grain, and your vessels overflowing with new wine.
My son, do not make your heart hard against the Lord's teaching; do not be made angry by his training:
And you will say, How was teaching hated by me, and my heart put no value on training;
She gets her meat in the summer, storing up food at the time of the grain-cutting.
For the rule is a light, and the teaching a shining light; and the guiding words of training are the way of life.
Become expert in reason, O you simple ones; you foolish ones, take training to heart.

As the cold of snow in the time of grain-cutting, so is a true servant to those who send him; for he gives new life to the soul of his master.
As clouds and wind without rain, so is one who takes credit for an offering he has not given.
