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.
