Proverbs 23:21

Learning From Your Father

²⁰ Do not be with heavy drinkers of wine,
Or with gluttonous eaters of meat;
²¹ For the heavy drinker and the glutton will come to poverty,
And drowsiness will clothe one with rags.
²² Listen to your father who begot you,
And do not despise your mother when she is old.
