Proverbs 1:8-10
New Living Translation

A Father’s Exhortation: Acquire Wisdom

8 My child,[a] listen when your father corrects you.
    Don’t neglect your mother’s instruction.
9 What you learn from them will crown you with grace
    and be a chain of honor around your neck.

10 My child, if sinners entice you,
    turn your back on them!
