Proverbs 23:22-28
22Hearken unto thy fatherH1 that begat thee,And despiseH936 not thy motherH517 when she is oldH2204.23BuyH7069 the truthH571, and sellH4376 it not;Yea, wisdomH2451, and instruction, and understandingH998.24The fatherH1 of the righteousH6662 will greatly rejoiceH8055;And he that begetteth a wiseH2450 childH3205 will have joy of him.25Let thy fatherH1 and thy motherH517 be gladH8055,And let her that bare thee rejoiceH8055.26My sonH1121, giveH5414 me thy heartH3820;And let thine eyesH5869 delightH7521 in my waysH1870.27For a harlot is a deepH6013 ditch;And a foreignH5237 womanH5237 is a narrow pitH7745.28Yea, she lieth in waitH693 as a robber,And increaseth the treacherousH898 among menH120.
