Proverbs

²⁴The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him. ²⁵Let thy father and thy mother be glad, and let her that bare thee rejoice. ²⁶My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes delight in my ways. ²⁷For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit. ²⁸Yea, she lieth in wait as a robber, and increaseth the treacherous among men. ²⁹Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath complaining? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes? ³⁰They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek out mixed wine.
