The King James Version Bible

Proverbs 4:1-4

  1. Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.

  2. For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law.

  3. For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.

  4. He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.
