Proverbs 4:1-9

The father urges his sons to embrace the way of wisdom.
v.1-2 An exhortation for the son to pay attention to the wisdom teaching (insight, precepts, teaching, instruction) of his father.
v.3-4a An introduction to the words (v.4b-9) of the father's father.
v.4b-9 Hold fast to my words (and commands); get wisdom and insight. Wisdom will honor and protect you if you embrace her.

The grandfather's advice is that the beginning of wisdom is to get wisdom and prize her highly. Wisdom is personified as a woman the son is to grow intimate with.
