Sayings of the Wise

17 Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise,
And apply your heart to my knowledge;
18 For it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you;
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 aThat I may make you know the certainty of the words of truth,
bThat you may answer words of truth
To those who1 send to you? 
22 Do not rob the apoor because he is poor,
Nor oppress the afflicted at the gate; 
23 aFor the Lord will plead their cause,
And plunder the soul of those who plunder them.
