6 For understanding a proverb and its sweetness, Words of the wise and their acute sayings.
7 Fear of Jehovah 'is' a beginning of knowledge, Wisdom and instruction fools have despised!
8 Hear, my son, the instruction of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother,
9 For a graceful wreath 'are' they to thy head, And chains to thy neck.
10 My son, if sinners entice thee be not willing.
