1 Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son causeth a father to rejoice, And a foolish son 'is' an affliction to his mother.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit not, And righteousness delivereth from death.
3 Jehovah causeth not the soul of the righteous to hunger, And the desire of the wicked He thrusteth away.
4 Poor 'is' he who is working -- a slothful hand, And the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
5 Whoso is gathering in summer 'is' a wise son, Whoso is sleeping in harvest 'is' a son causing shame.
