Proverbs 4:1-5 ▼

1 Heare (O ye children) the fatherly exortacio, & take good hede, that ye maye lerne wysdome.

2 Yee I shal geue you a good rewarde, yf ye wil not forsake my lawe.

3 For when I myself was my fathers deare sonne, and tenderly beloued of my mother,

4 he taught me also, sayenge: let thine herte receaue my wordes, kepe my commaundementes, and thou shalt lyue.

5 Get the wysdome, get the vnderstondinge, forget not ye wordes of my mouth, & shreke not from them.
