20 My son, preserve the precepts of your father, and do not dismiss the law of your mother.
21 Bind them to your heart unceasingly, and encircle them around your throat.
22 When you walk, let them keep step with you. When you sleep, let them guard you. And when you keep watch, speak with them.
23 For commandment is a lamp, and law is a light, and the reproofs of discipline are the way of life.
24 So may they guard you from an evil woman, and from the flattering tongue of the outsider.
25 Let not your heart desire her beauty; do not be captivated by her winks.
