23 Draw near to me, you who are untaught,
    and lodge in my school.
24 Why do you say you are lacking in these things,[a]
    and why are your souls very thirsty?
25 I opened my mouth and said,
    Get these things[b] for yourselves without money.
26 Put your neck under the yoke,
    and let your souls receive instruction;
    it is to be found close by.
27 See with your eyes that I have labored little
    and found for myself much rest.
