Proverbs 4:3-9

3For I wasH1961 a sonH1121 unto my fatherH1, tenderH7390 and an onlyH3173 one in the sight of my motherH517.

4And he taughtH3384 me, and saidH559 unto me, Let thy heartH3820 retain my wordsH1697; keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and liveH2421.

5Get wisdomH2451, get intelligence: forgetH7911 [it] not; neither decline from the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310.

6ForsakeH5800 her not, and she shall keepH8104 thee; loveH157 her, and she shall preserveH5341 thee.

7The beginning of wisdomH2451 [is], Get wisdomH2451; and with all thy getting get intelligence.

8ExaltH7311 her, and she shall promote thee; she shall bring thee to honour when thou dost embraceH2263 her.

9She shall giveH5414 to thy headH7218 a garland of graceH2580; a crownH5850 of gloryH8597 will she bestow upon thee.
