Mishle 4:9-16 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

9. She shall give to thine head a garland of chen; an ateret (crown) of tiferet (glory) shall she present to thee.

10. Hear, O beni (my son), and receive my sayings; and thy shnot chayyim shall be many.

11. I have taught thee in the derech chochmah; I have led thee in ma'aglei yosher (right paths).

12. When thou goest, thy steps shall not be hindered; and when thou runnest, lo tikashel (thou shalt not stumble).

13. Take firm hold of musar; let her not go; guard her; for she is thy chayyim.

14. Enter not into the orach resha'im, and go not on the derech ra'im (road of the wicked).

15. Avoid it, travel al (not) on it, turn from it, and pass on.

16. For they sleep not, unless they have done evil; and their sheynah (sleep) is robbed, unless they cause some to fall.
