Proverbs 22:17-21
American Standard Version
17 Incline thine ear, and hear the words of the wise,
And apply thy heart unto my knowledge.
18 For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee,
If they be established together upon thy lips.
19 That thy trust may be in Jehovah,
I have made them known to thee this day, even to thee.
20 Have not I written unto thee [a]excellent things
[b]Of counsels and knowledge,
21 To make thee know [c]the certainty of the words of truth,
That thou mayest carry back words of truth to them that send thee?
