17. Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise,
And apply your heart to my knowledge;

Let them all be fixed upon your lips,
19. So that your trust may be in the LORD;
I have instructed you today, even you.
20. Have I not written to you excellent things
Of counsels and knowledge,
21. That I may make you know the certainty of the words of truth,
That you may answer words of truth
To those who send to you?

And with a furious man do not go,
25. Lest you learn his ways
And set a snare for your soul.

Which your fathers have set.
