Proverbs 4:4-6
EasyEnglish Bible
3-4 My father taught me when I was a little boy. My mother loved me as her only child. My father said to me,
‘Think carefully about what I tell you.
If you obey my commands, you will live well.
5 Learn to be wise and to understand things properly.
Do not forget my teaching or turn away from it.
6 If you keep hold of wisdom, she will keep you safe.
She will protect you if you love her.[a]
Footnotes
- 4:6 ‘She’. In the Book of Proverbs, wisdom is like a woman. See Proverbs 1:20.
