Proverbs 22:17-21
Lexham English Bible
Words of the Wise
17 Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise;
you shall apply your heart[a] to my teaching.
18 For it is pleasant if you guard them within you;[b]
together they will be ready upon your lips.
19 In order for your trust to be in Yahweh,
I have made them known to you today[c]—even[d] you.
20 Have I not written for you thirty sayings
with admonitions and knowledge?
21 In order to show you what is right—sayings of truth—
in order to return a true saying to him who sent you.

17 Turn your ear, and listen to the words of the wise.
Apply your heart to my teaching.
18 For it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you,
if all of them are ready on your lips.
19 I teach you today, even you,
So that your trust may be in Yahweh.
20 Haven’t I written to you thirty excellent things
of counsel and knowledge,
21 To teach you truth, reliable words,
to give sound answers to the ones who sent you?
