Proverbs 23:22-28
22Hearken unto thy fatherH1 that begat thee, and despiseH936 notH408 thy motherH517 when sheH3588 is oldH2204.
23BuyH7069 the truthH571, and sellH4376 it notH408; yea, wisdomH2451, and instructionH4148, and understandingH998.
24The fatherH1 of the righteousH6662 shall greatlyH1523 rejoiceH8055: and he that begetteth a wiseH2450 childH3205 shall have joyH8055 of him.
25LetH1523 thy fatherH1 and thy motherH517 be gladH8055, and letH1523 herH3205 that bare thee rejoiceH8055.
26My sonH1121, giveH5414 meH5414 thine heartH3820, and letH5414 thine eyesH5869 delightH7521 in my waysH1870.
27For a whore is a deepH6013 ditch; and a strange womanH5237 is a narrow pitH7745.
28Yea, sheH1931 lieth in waitH693 as a robberH2863, and increaseth the treacherousH898 among menH120.
