1
My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands;
2
For length of days and long life And peace they will add to you.
3
Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart,
4
And so find favor and high esteem In the sight of God and man.
5
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;
6
In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.
