Proverbs 4 lines 4 through 13

THE PROVERBS.

CHAPTER 4:

4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let
thine heart retain my words: keep my
commandments, and live.
5 Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it
not; neither decline from the words of my
mouth.
6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve
thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.
7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore
get wisdom: and with all thy getting get
understanding.
8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee:
she shall bring thee to honour, when thou
dost embrace her.
9 She shall give to thine head an ornament
of grace: a crown of glory shall she
deliver to thee.
10 Hear, O my son, and receive my
sayings; and the years of thy life shall be
many.
11 I have taught thee in the way of
wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.
12 When thou goest, thy steps shall not be
straitened; and when thou runnest, thou
shalt not stumble.
13 Take fast hold of instruction; let her
not go: keep her; for she is thy life.
