1For it is written: How long will fools think on their folly? And will scorners desire mockery?
2I will pursue them with my words. Come then, children, hear me. I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
3Who is the man who desires life and loves to see good days? Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking guile.
4Depart from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
