8 In deed and word honor your father, That a blessing may come upon you from him.
9 For the blessing of the father establishes the houses of children; But the curse of the mother roots out the foundations.
10 Glorify not yourself in the dishonor of your father; For your father’s dishonor is no glory to you.
11 For the glory of a man is from the honor of his father; And a mother in dishonor is a reproach to her children.
12 My son, help your father in his old age; And grieve him not as long as he lives.
13 And if he fails in understanding, have patience with him; And dishonor him not while you are in your full strength.
14 For the relieving of your father shall not be forgotten: And instead of sins it shall be added to build you up.
