Let your ear be bent down for hearing my words, and let your heart give thought to knowledge.
To make you see how certain are true words, so that you may give a true answer to those who put questions to you?
Give your heart to teaching, and your ears to the words of knowledge.
The food which you have taken will come up again, and your pleasing words will be wasted.

My son, give attention to my words; let your ear be turned to my sayings.
And he gave me teaching, saying to me, Keep my words in your heart; keep my rules so that you may have life:
Get wisdom, get true knowledge; keep it in memory, do not be turned away from the words of my mouth.
Give ear to me then, my sons, and do not put away my words from you.
A good-for-nothing man is an evil-doer; he goes on his way causing trouble with false words;
A false witness, breathing out untrue words, and one who lets loose violent acts among brothers.

For the rule is a light, and the teaching a shining light; and the guiding words of training are the way of life.

Words of hate are round about me; they have made war against me without cause.
The opening of your words gives light; it gives good sense to the simple.
My passion has overcome me; because my haters are turned away from your words.
Before the sun is up, my cry for help comes to your ear; my hope is in your words.
I am full of hate and disgust for false words; but I am a lover of your law.
Take away from me shame and bitter words; for I have kept your unchanging word in my heart.
<CHETH> The Lord is my heritage: I have said that I would be ruled by your words.
Let your worshippers be turned to me, and those who have knowledge of your words.
