30 Her yoke will be a gold ornament;her bonds, a purple cord.
31 You will wear her as a robe of glory,and bear her as a splendid crown.
32 If you wish, my son, you can be wise;if you apply yourself, you can be shrewd.
33 If you are willing to listen, you can learn;if you pay attention, you can be instructed.
34 Stand in the company of the elders;stay close to whoever is wise.
35 Be eager to hear every discourse;let no insightful saying escape you.
36 If you see the intelligent, seek them out;let your feet wear away their doorsteps!
