1. My son, keep my words, And lay up my commandments with thee.
2. Keep my commandments and live; And my law as the apple of thine eye.
3. Bind them upon thy fingers; Write them upon the tablet of thy heart.
4. Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; And call understanding thy kinswoman:
5. That they may keep thee from the strange woman, From the foreigner that flattereth with her words.
