23 Listen, my child,and welcome my opinion.Don’t reject my advice.
24 Put your feet into her shacklesand your neck into her collar.
25 Bend your shoulder down and carry her,and don’t chafe at her bonds.
26 Come to her with your whole being,and keep to her wayswith all your strength.
27 Track her down and seek her,and she will become known to you.When you get possession of her,don’t let her go.
28 In the end, you will find rest in her,and she will turn to youand make you happy.
29 Her shackles will bea strong shelter for you,and her collar will be a glorious robe.
