A wise son maketh a glad father; but an indiscreet body shameth his mother.

Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father; but an indiscreet son is a heaviness unto his mother.

Whoso loveth wisdom, maketh his father a glad man; but he that keepeth harlots, spendeth away that he hath.

Whoso laugheth his father to scorn, and setteth his mother's commandment at naught; the ravens pick out his eyes in the valley, and devoured be he of the young Eagles.

"Honour thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

See that ye fear every man his father and his mother, and that ye keep my Sabbaths, for I am the LORD your God.

And last of all thus said the king, 'Blessed be the LORD God of Israel which hath made one to sit on my seat this day, even mine eyes seeing it.'"

But pardon thou him not. Thou art a man of wisdom and shalt know what to do to him, see therefore that thou bring his hoar head to the grave with blood."

When Hiram heard the words of Solomon, he rejoiced greatly and said, "Blessed be the LORD this day which hath set David a wise son over this mighty people."

My son, if thy heart receive wisdom, my heart also shall rejoice:

Give ear unto thy father that begat thee; and despise not thy mother when she is old.

Ye know the proof of him, how that as a son with the father, so with me bestowed he his labour upon the gospel.
