וַיֹּרֵנִי וַיֹּאמֶר לִי יִֽתְמָךְ־דְּבָרַי לִבֶּךָ שְׁמֹר מִצְוֺתַי וֶֽחְיֵֽה
And he taught me, and said unto me: ‘Let thy heart hold fast my words, Keep my commandments, and live;
קְנֵה חָכְמָה קְנֵה בִינָה אַל־תִּשְׁכַּח וְאַל־תֵּט מֵֽאִמְרֵי־פִֽי
Get wisdom, get understanding; Forget not, neither decline from the words of my mouth;
אַל־תַּעַזְבֶהָ וְתִשְׁמְרֶךָּ אֱהָבֶהָ וְתִצְּרֶֽךָּ

The beginning of wisdom is: Get wisdom; Yea, with all thy getting get understanding.
