'Son' in the Bible

Proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:

Hear, my son, the instruction of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother,

My son, if sinners entice thee be not willing.

My son! go not in the way with them, Withhold thy foot from their path,

My son, if thou dost accept my sayings, And my commands dost lay up with thee,

My son! my law forget not, And my commands let thy heart keep,

Chastisement of Jehovah, my son, despise not, And be not vexed with His reproof,

For whom Jehovah loveth He reproveth, Even as a father the son He is pleased with.

My son! let them not turn from thine eyes, Keep thou wisdom and thoughtfulness,

For, a son I have been to my father -- tender, And an only one before my mother.

Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And years of life are multiplied to thee.

My son, to my words give attention, To my sayings incline thine ear,

My son! to my wisdom give attention, To mine understanding incline thine ear,

And why dost thou magnify thyself, My son, with a stranger? And embrace the bosom of a strange woman?

My son! if thou hast been surety for thy friend, Hast stricken for a stranger thy hand,

Do this now, my son, and be delivered, For thou hast come into the hand of thy friend. Go, trample on thyself, and strengthen thy friend,

Keep, my son, the command of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother.

My son! keep my sayings, And my commands lay up with thee.

Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son causeth a father to rejoice, And a foolish son is an affliction to his mother.

Whoso is gathering in summer is a wise son, Whoso is sleeping in harvest is a son causing shame.

A wise son -- the instruction of a father, And a scorner -- he hath not heard rebuke.

Whoso is sparing his rod is hating his son, And whoso is loving him hath hastened him chastisement.

A wise son rejoiceth a father. And a foolish man is despising his mother.

A wise servant ruleth over a son causing shame, And in the midst of brethren He apportioneth an inheritance.

A provocation to his father is a foolish son, And bitterness to her that bare him.

A calamity to his father is a foolish son, And the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.

Chastise thy son, for there is hope, And to put him to death lift not up thy soul.

Whoso is spoiling a father causeth a mother to flee, A son causing shame, and bringing confusion.

Cease, my son, to hear instruction -- To err from sayings of knowledge.

My son, if thy heart hath been wise, My heart rejoiceth, even mine,

Hear thou, my son, and be wise, And make happy in the way thy heart,

Give, my son, thy heart to me, And let thine eyes watch my ways.

Eat my son, honey that is good, And the honeycomb -- sweet to thy palate.

Fear Jehovah, my son, and the king, With changers mix not up thyself,

Be wise, my son, and rejoice my heart. And I return my reproacher a word.

Whoso is keeping the law is an intelligent son, And a friend of gluttons, Doth cause his father to blush.

Chastise thy son, and he giveth thee comfort, Yea, he giveth delights to thy soul.

Words of a Gatherer, son of an obedient one, the declaration, an affirmation of the man: -- I have wearied myself for God, I have wearied myself for God, and am consumed.

'What, my son? and what, son of my womb? And what, son of my vows?
