17 Listen carefully and hear the words of the wise, And apply your mind to my knowledge; 18 For it will be pleasant if you keep them in mind [incorporating them as guiding principles]; Let them be ready on your lips [to guide and strengthen yourself and others]. 19 So that your trust and reliance and confidence may be in the LORD, I have taught these things to you today, even to you. 20 Have I not written to you excellent things In counsels and knowledge, 21 To let you know the certainty of the words of truth, That you may give a correct answer to him who sent you?
