Proverbs 6:20-23

Lexham English Bible

²⁰ My child, keep the commandment of your father,
    and do not disregard the instruction of your mother.
²¹ Bind them on your heart continually;
    tie them upon your neck.
²² When you walk,^[a] she^[b] will lead you,
    When you lie down,^[c] she will watch over you,
    and when you awake, she will converse with you.
²³ For like a lamp is a commandment, and instruction is light,
    and the way of life^[d] is the reproof of discipline,
