33 Son, if you heed me, you will learn. And if you adapt your mind, you will be wise.
34 If you incline your ear, you will receive doctrine. And if you love to listen, you will be wise.
35 Stand among the multitude of prudent elders, and join yourself to their wisdom from the heart, so that you may be able to hear every discourse about God, and so that the proverbs of praise may not flee from you.
36 And if you see a man of understanding, stand watch for him, and let your feet wear down the steps of his doors.
37 Set your thoughts on the precepts of God, and be entirely constant in his commandments. And he himself will give a heart to you, and the desire of wisdom will be given to you.
