Proverbs 7:1-5

1My son, 1keep my words And treasure my commandments within you.2 2Keep my commandments and live, And my 3teaching 4as the 5apple of your eye.3 6Bind them on your fingers; 7Write them on the tablet of your heart.4Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,” And call understanding your intimate friend,5So that they may keep you from an 8adulteress, From the foreigner who flatters with her words.
