26 He who plunders a father, Chases away his mother, Is a son causing shame and bringing reproach.
27 Cease, my son, to hear discipline, And you shall stray from the words of knowledge.
28 A witness of Beliya‛al scorns right-ruling, And the mouth of the wrong ones Devours wickedness.
29 Judgments are in store for scoffers, And beatings for the backs of fools.
