22:17 你須側耳聽受智慧人的言語，留心領會我的知識。
22:18 你若心中存記，嘴上咬定，這便為美。
22:19 我今日以此特特指教你，為要使你倚靠耶和華。
22:20 謀略和知識的美事，我豈沒有寫給你嗎？
22:21 要使你知道真言的實理，你好將真言回覆那打發你來的人。

Pay attention and turn your ear to the sayings of the wise;
apply your heart to what I teach,
18 for it is pleasing when you keep them in your heart
and have all of them ready on your lips.
19 So that your trust may be in the Lord,
I teach you today, even you.
20 Have I not written thirty sayings for you,
sayings of counsel and knowledge,
21 teaching you to be honest and to speak the truth,
so that you bring back truthful reports
to those you serve?

被上帝拯救的人，要繼續傳揚上帝的真理給尚未得救的人，因為在這些人當中有上帝揀選的人。雖然尚未明顯，但是聖靈要讓得救的人得著智慧，知道如何倚靠上帝，將這樣的真言傳講出去，就會呼召出屬乎上帝的人來倚靠耶和華，讓上帝的救贖顯明！
《箴言》的作者雖然是將智慧的話語教導人，更是將智慧的根本傳授於人，而智慧的根本就是敬畏耶和華，而敬畏耶和華的行動就是倚靠耶和華不倚靠自己，倚靠自己是一切惡事的源頭！
讓我們也是以倚靠耶和華為我們生命的中心，求主保守與帶領，讓我們倚靠耶和華，才能成為「榮耀上帝，以上帝為永遠福樂」的人！如此，才能為成人生的目的！
