'Father' in the Bible

For whom the Lord loves He reproves,Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.

Hear, O sons, the instruction of a father,And give attention that you may gain understanding,

When I was a son to my father,Tender and the only son in the sight of my mother,

My son, observe the commandment of your fatherAnd do not forsake the teaching of your mother;

The proverbs of Solomon.A wise son makes a father glad,But a foolish son is a grief to his mother.

A wise son makes a father glad,But a foolish man despises his mother.

He who sires a fool does so to his sorrow,And the father of a fool has no joy.

A foolish son is a grief to his fatherAnd bitterness to her who bore him.

A foolish son is destruction to his father,And the contentions of a wife are a constant dripping.

He who assaults his father and drives his mother awayIs a shameful and disgraceful son.

He who curses his father or his mother,His lamp will go out in time of darkness.

Listen to your father who begot you,And do not despise your mother when she is old.

The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice,And he who sires a wise son will be glad in him.

Let your father and your mother be glad,And let her rejoice who gave birth to you.

He who keeps the law is a discerning son,But he who is a companion of gluttons humiliates his father.

He who robs his father or his motherAnd says, “It is not a transgression,”Is the companion of a man who destroys.

A man who loves wisdom makes his father glad,But he who keeps company with harlots wastes his wealth.

There is a kind of man who curses his fatherAnd does not bless his mother.

The eye that mocks a fatherAnd scorns a mother,The ravens of the valley will pick it out,And the young eagles will eat it.
