⁶The proverb is: A youth is close to his way; even when he is old, he will not withdraw from it.

⁵You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength. ⁶And these words, which I instruct to you this day, shall be in your heart. ⁷And you shall explain them to your sons. And you shall meditate upon them sitting in your house, and walking on a journey, when lying down and when rising up. ⁸And you shall bind them like a sign on your hand, and they shall be placed and shall move between your eyes. ⁹And you shall write them at the threshold and on the doors of your house.

⁸Listen, my son, to the discipline of your father, and forsake not the law of your mother,

³³Do not be led astray. Evil communication corrupts good morals.

⁵⁸And so, my beloved brothers, be steadfast and unmovable, abounding always in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not useless in the Lord.

¹⁵I am not praying that you would take them out of the world, but that you would preserve them from evil.

¹Blessed is the man who has not followed the counsel of the impious, and has not remained in the way of sinners, and has not sat in the chair of pestilence. ²But his will is with the law of the Lord, and he will meditate on his law, day and night. ³And he will be like a tree that has been planted beside running waters, which will provide its fruit in its time, and its leaf will not fall away, and all things whatsoever that he does will prosper. ⁴Not so the impious, not so. For they are like the dust that the wind casts along the face of the earth. ⁵Therefore, the impious will not prevail again in judgment, nor sinners in the council of the just. ⁶For the Lord knows the way of the just. And the path of the impious will pass away.

²⁰O Timothy, guard what has been deposited with you, avoiding the voice of profane novelties and of opposing ideas, which are falsely called knowledge. ²¹Certain persons, promising these things, have perished from the faith. May grace be with you. Amen.

¹⁴Yet truly, you should remain in those things which you have learned and which have been entrusted to you. For you know from whom you have learned them. ¹⁵And, from your infancy, you have known the Sacred Scriptures, which are able to instruct you toward salvation, through the faith which is in Christ Jesus. ¹⁶All Scripture, having been divinely inspired, is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in justice, ¹⁷so that the man of God may be perfect, having been trained for every good work.

⁸See to it that no one deceives you through philosophy and empty falsehoods, as found in the traditions of men, in accord with the influences of the world, and not in accord with Christ.

⁵And he has received testimony with Jacob, and he has set a law within Israel. Such great things, he has commanded our fathers, so as to make these things known to their sons, ⁶so that another generation might know them, and so that the sons, who will be born and who will grow up, shall describe them to their sons. ⁷So then, may they put their hope in God, and may they not forget the works of God, and may they seek his commandments. ⁸May they not become like their fathers, a perverse and exasperating generation: a generation that does not straighten their heart and whose spirit is not trustworthy with God.
