1 My son, don’t forget my teaching,but let your heart keep my commands;
2 for they will bring youmany days, a full life, and well-being.
3 Never let loyalty and faithfulness leave you.Tie them around your neck;write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Then you will find favor and high regardin the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding;
