Proverbs
Chapters 23:23-29
New International Version Anglicized
23Buy the truth and do not sell it –wisdom, instruction and insight as well.
24The father of a righteous child has great joy;a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him.
25May your father and mother rejoice;may she who gave you birth be joyful!Saying 18
26My son, give me your heartand let your eyes delight in my ways,
27for an adulterous woman is a deep pit,and a wayward wife is a narrow well.
28Like a bandit she lies in waitand multiplies the unfaithful among men.Saying 19
29Who has woe? Who has sorrow?Who has strife? Who has complaints?Who has needless bruises? Who has bloodshot eyes?
