Proverbs 4:3 ASV

¹  Hear, `my' sons, 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 a son unto my father, Tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.

⁴  And he taught me, and said unto me: Let thy heart retain my words; Keep my commandments, and live;

⁵  Get wisdom, get understanding; Forget not, neither decline from the words of my mouth;
