Proverbs 15:20

A Wise Son Brings Blessings To Others

¹⁹ The way of the lazy one is like a hedge of thorns, but the way of the righteous is made plain. ²⁰ A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish man despises his mother. ²¹ Folly is joy to him who is without any wisdom, but a man of understanding walks uprightly.
