13 A foolish son is a disaster to his father;a contentious wife is like constant dripping.
14 House and riches are an inheritance from one’s ancestors,but an insightful wife is from the Lord.
15 Laziness brings on deep sleep;a slacker goes hungry.
16 Those who keep the commandment preserve their lives;those who disregard their ways will die.
17 Those who are gracious to the poor lend to the Lord,and the Lord will fully repay them.
18 Discipline your children while there is hope,but don’t plan to kill them.
19 Angry people must pay the penalty;if you rescue them, then you will have to do it again.
