Hear thou, my son, and be wise, And guide thine heart in the way.
Hear, my son, and be wise, and direct your mind in the way [of the Lord].
Hear thou, my son, and be wise, And guide thy heart in the way.
Listen, my child, and be wise! Keep your mind straight on the path.
Listen, my son, and be wise, and direct your soul along the way.
Hear thou, my son, and be wise: and guide thy mind in the way.
