Proverbs 19:17

A Foolish Son Brings Ruin To Others

¹⁶ He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul,
But he who is careless of conduct will die.
¹⁷ One who is gracious to a poor man lends to the Lord,
And He will repay him for his good deed.
¹⁸ Discipline your son while there is hope,
And do not desire his death.
