heart, for it is the wellspring of life. "

"My son,
if your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad; my inmost being
will rejoice when your lips speak what is right. Do not let your
heart envy sinners, but always be zealous for the fear of the LORD
. There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be
cut off. Listen, my son, and be wise, and keep your heart on the
right path. Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge
themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and
drowsiness clothes them in rags. Listen to your father, who gave
you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old. Buy the
truth and do not sell it; get wisdom, discipline and understanding.
"

he delights in. "

understanding. "
