Proverbs 19:15

A Foolish Son Brings Ruin To Others

¹⁴ House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers,
But a prudent wife is from the Lord.
¹⁵ Laziness casts into a deep sleep,
And an idle man will suffer hunger.
¹⁶ He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul,
But he who is careless of conduct will die.

And arise from the dead,
And Christ will shine on you.”
