19 Hear you, my son, and be wise, and guide your heart in the way.
20 Be not among winebibbers; among gluttonous eaters of meat:
21 For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags.
22 Hearken unto your father that begat you, and despise not your mother when she is old.
23 Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.
24 The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begets a wise child shall have joy in him.
25 Your father and your mother shall be glad, and she that bore you shall rejoice.
