Proverbs 1:3-8

English Standard Version

³ to receive instruction in wise dealing,
    in ^(A)righteousness, justice, and equity;
⁴ to give prudence to ^(B)the simple,
    knowledge and ^(C)discretion to the youth—
⁵ Let the wise hear and ^(D)increase in learning,
    and the one who understands obtain guidance,
⁶ to understand a proverb and a saying,
    ^(E)the words of the wise and their ^(F)riddles.

^8 (H)Hear, my son, your father's instruction,
    and forsake not your mother's teaching,
