Proverbs 19:13-25 - A Foolish Son Brings Ruin To Others
13 A foolish son a calamity to his father: and the strifes of a woman a dropping thrust out
14 A house and wealth the inheritance of fathers: and an understanding wife from Jehovah.
15 Sloth will cast a deep sleep; and the soul of sloth shall hunger.
16 He watching the command watches his soul: he despising his ways shall die.
17 He pitying the poor lends to Jehovah, and he will recompense to him his act.
18 Correct thy son when there is hope, and thy soul shall not lift up for his sighing.
19 The stern in wrath lifted up a fine: for if thou shalt deliver and thou shalt yet add.
20 Hear counsel and receive instruction, so that thou shalt be wise in thy latter state.
21 Many purposes in a man's heart: and the counsel of Jehovah, that shall stand.
22 The desire of man his mercy: and the poor good above the man of falsehood.
23 The fear of Jehovah is to life: and he being filled shall lodge satisfied; he shall not be reviewed for evil.
24 The slothful one hiding his hand in the dish, also he will not turn it back to his mouth.
25 Thou shalt strike him mocking, and the simple will be crafty: and reprove to him understanding, and he will understand knowledge.
