Psalms 49:3

³⁵The good man out of his good treasure^[+] brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things.

¹⁴Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, LORD, my rock, and my redeemer.

¹⁷Turn your ear, and listen to the words of the wise. Apply your heart to my teaching.

²⁰Haven’t I written to you thirty excellent things of counsel and knowledge, ²¹To teach you truth, reliable words, to give sound answers to the ones who sent you?

¹Listen, sons, to a father’s instruction. Pay attention and know understanding; ²for I give you sound learning. Don’t forsake my law.

¹My heart overflows with a noble theme. I recite my verses for the king. My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer.

³⁰The mouth of the righteous talks of wisdom. His tongue speaks justice.

²My doctrine will drop as the rain. My speech will condense as the dew, as the misty rain on the tender grass, as the showers on the herb.

³My words will utter the uprightness of my heart. That which my lips know they will speak sincerely.

¹³⁰The entrance of your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple.
