Introduction to the Words of the Wise

Proverbs 22:17-21

Incline thine ear, and hear words of the wise, And thy heart set to my knowledge,

For they are pleasant when thou dost keep them in thy heart, They are prepared together for thy lips.

That thy trust may be in Jehovah, I caused thee to know to-day, even thou.

Have I not written to thee three times With counsels and knowledge?

To cause thee to know the certainty of sayings of truth, To return sayings of truth to those sending thee.
