Advice to Young People
1 My child, listen closely to my teachings and learn common sense.
2 My advice is useful, so don't turn away.
3 When I was still very young and my mother's favorite child, my father
4 said to me: “If you follow my teachings and keep them in mind, you will live.
5 Be wise and learn good sense; remember my teachings and do what I say.
6 “If you love Wisdom and don't reject her, she will watch over you.
7 The best thing about Wisdom is Wisdom herself; good sense is more important than anything else.
8 If you value Wisdom and hold tightly to her, great honors will be yours.
9 It will be like wearing a glorious crown of beautiful flowers.”
