Strong's Number H241 matches the Hebrew אֹזֶן ('ōzen),
which occurs 14 times in 14 verses in 'Pro'
in the WLC Hebrew.
So that your ear is attentive to [skillful and godly] wisdom,
And apply your heart to understanding [seeking it conscientiously and striving for it eagerly];
My son, pay attention to my words and be willing to learn;
Open your ears to my sayings.
My son, be attentive to my wisdom [godly wisdom learned by costly experience],
Incline your ear to my understanding;
“I have not listened to the voice of my teachers,
Nor have I inclined my ear to those who instructed me.
The ear that listens to and learns from the life-giving rebuke (reprimand, censure)
Will remain among the wise.
The mind of the prudent [always] acquires knowledge,
And the ear of the wise [always] seeks knowledge.
Whoever shuts his ears at the cry of the poor
Will cry out himself and not be answered.
Listen carefully and hear the [fn]words of the wise,
And apply your mind to my knowledge;
Do not speak in the ears of a fool,
For he will despise the [godly] wisdom of your words.
Like an earring of gold and an ornament of fine gold
Is a wise reprover to an ear that listens and learns.
Like one who grabs a dog by the ears [and is likely to be bitten]
Is he who, passing by, stops to meddle with a dispute that is none of his business.
