בְּאָזְנֵי כְסִיל אַל־תְּדַבֵּר כִּֽי־יָבוּז לְשֵׂכֶל מִלֶּֽיךָ
Speak not in the ears of a fool; for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.
אַל־תַּסֵּג גְּבוּל עוֹלָם וּבִשְׂדֵי יְתוֹמִים אַל־תָּבֹֽא
Remove not the ancient landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless;
כִּֽי־גֹאֲלָם חָזָק הֽוּא־יָרִיב אֶת־רִיבָם אִתָּֽךְ
For their Redeemer is strong; He will plead their cause with thee.
הָבִיאָה לַמּוּסָר לִבֶּךָ וְאָזְנֶךָ לְאִמְרֵי־דָֽעַת
Apply thy heart unto instruction, And thine ears to the words of knowledge.
אַל־תִּמְנַע מִנַּעַר מוּסָר כִּֽי־תַכֶּנּוּ בַשֵּׁבֶט לֹא יָמֽוּת
Withhold not correction from the child; For though thou beat him with the rod, he will not die.
