to receive instruction in wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;

Children, hear the instruction of a father, and pay attention to know understanding,

My son, keep my words and treasure up my commandments within you.

And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.

He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him; the Word that I speak will judge him in the Last Day.

This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.

My son, do not forget my law, but let your heart keep my commandments,

My son, pay attention to my sayings; extend your ear to my words;

for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh.

Bind them perpetually to your heart; tie them around your neck.

And these Words which I am commanding you today shall be in your heart.

You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.

I have not departed from the Commandment of His lips; I have treasured the Words of His mouth more than my prescribed food.

BETH: How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your Word.

Your Word have I hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You.

Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells everything he has and buys that field.

But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.

And He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them; but His mother kept all these words in her heart.

Let these words sink down into your ears, for the Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men.
