Proverbs 23:23 BBE

²¹  For those who take delight in drink and feasting will come to be in need; and through love of sleep a man will be poorly clothed.

²²  Give ear to your father whose child you are, and do not keep honour from your mother when she is old.

²³  Get for yourself that which is true, and do not let it go for money; get wisdom and teaching and good sense.

²⁴  The father of the upright man will be glad, and he who has a wise child will have joy because of him.

²⁵  Let your father and your mother be glad, let her who gave you birth have joy.
