Answer
Attend to my words, Incline your ear to my sayings, Do not let them depart from your eyes, Keep them in the midst of your heart

### The order
1. **Give attention to the Word**: this corresponds to attending to God’s words.
2. **Listen to what it says**: the next instruction is to incline the ear.
3. **Keep it before the eyes**: the text then emphasizes visual attention.
4. **Keep it in the heart**: the final instruction describes inward reception.
