3 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:

² For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.

³ Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

⁴ So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

²⁴ He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

²⁶ In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.
