22ListenH8085 to your fatherH1 whoH2088 gave you lifeH3205, and do notH408 despiseH936 your motherH517 whenH3588 she is oldH2204.23Invest inH7069 truthH571 and neverH408 sell itH4376— in wisdomH2451 and instructionH4148 and understandingH998.24The fatherH1 of a righteous manH6662 will greatly rejoiceH1523, and he who fathersH3205 a wise sonH2450 will delight in himH8055.25May your fatherH1 and motherH517 be gladH8055, and may she who gave you birthH3205 rejoiceH1523!
26My sonH1121, give meH5414 your heartH3820,and let your eyesH5869 delightH7521 in my waysH1870.27ForH3588 a prostituteH2181 is a deepH6013 pitH7745,and an adulteressH52371 is a narrowH6862 wellH875.28Like a robberH2863 sheH1931 lies in waitH693and multipliesH3254 the faithlessH898 among menH120.
