Advice to Young People
My child, listen closely to my teachings and learn common sense.
Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.
2 My advice is useful, so don't turn away. For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law.
3 When I was still very young and my mother's favorite child, my father For I was my father’s son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.
4 said to me: “If you follow my teachings and keep them in mind, you will live. He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.
5 Be wise and learn good sense; remember my teachings and do what I say. Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.
6 “If you love Wisdom and don't reject her, she will watch over you. Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.
7 The best thing about Wisdom is Wisdom herself; good sense is more important than anything else. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
8 If you value Wisdom and hold tightly to her, great honors will be yours. Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.
9 It will be like wearing a glorious crown of beautiful flowers.” She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

The Right Way and the Wrong Way
My child, if you listen and obey my teachings, you will live a long time.
Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.
11 I have shown you the way that makes sense; I have guided you along the right path. I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.
12 Your road won't be blocked, and you won't stumble when you run. When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
13 Hold firmly to my teaching and never let go. It will mean life for you. Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.
14 Don't follow the bad example of cruel and evil people. Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.
15 Turn aside and keep going. Stay away from them. Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.
16 They can't sleep or rest until they do wrong or harm some innocent victim. For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.
17 Their food and drink are cruelty and wickedness. For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.
18 The lifestyle of good people is like sunlight at dawn that keeps getting brighter until broad daylight. But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
19 The lifestyle of the wicked is like total darkness, and they will never know what makes them stumble. The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.
20 My child, listen carefully to everything I say. My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21 Don't forget a single word, but think about it all. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 Knowing these teachings will mean true life and good health for you. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
23 Carefully guard your thoughts because they are the source of true life. Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
24 Never tell lies or be deceitful in what you say. Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.
25 Keep looking straight ahead, without turning aside. Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
26 Know where you are headed, and you will stay on solid ground. Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.
27 Don't make a mistake by turning to the right or the left. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.
