Guidance for the Young

1 My son, do not forget my law,
^aBut let your heart keep my commands;

2 For length of days and long life
And ^apeace they will add to you.

3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you;
^aBind them around your neck,
^bWrite them on the tablet of your heart,

4 ^aAnd so find favor and¹ high esteem
In the sight of God and man.

5 ^aTrust in the Lord with all your heart,
^bAnd lean not on your own understanding;

6 ^aIn all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall¹ direct your paths.
