Discretion ¹  will protect you, ²  understanding will guard you,

My child, do not let them ¹  escape from your sight; safeguard sound wisdom and discretion. ² 

in order to safeguard ¹  discretion, ²  and that your lips may guard knowledge.

“I, wisdom, live with prudence, ¹  and I find ²  knowledge and discretion.

Like a gold ring ¹  in a pig’s snout ²  is ³  a beautiful woman who rejects ⁴  discretion. ⁵ 

Now at your own discretion, ¹  O king, come down. Delivering him into the king’s hand will be our responsibility.”
