24 The father of godly children has cause for joy.What a pleasure to have children who are wise.
25 So give your father and mother joy!May she who gave you birth be happy.
26 O my son, give me your heart.May your eyes take delight in following my ways.
27 A prostitute is a dangerous trap;a promiscuous woman is as dangerous as falling into a narrow well.
28 She hides and waits like a robber,eager to make more men unfaithful.
29 Who has anguish? Who has sorrow?Who is always fighting? Who is always complaining?Who has unnecessary bruises? Who has bloodshot eyes?
30 It is the one who spends long hours in the taverns,trying out new drinks.
