23 The fear of Yahweh leads to life, then contentment; He rests and will not be touched by trouble.
24 The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; He will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
25 Flog a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence; Rebuke one who has understanding, and he will gain knowledge.
26 He who robs his father and drives away his mother, Is a son who causes shame and brings reproach.
27 If you stop listening to instruction, my son, You will stray from the words of knowledge.
