- A wise son makes a father glad,
But a foolish son is a grief to his mother. - Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool,
Much less are lying lips to a prince. - Whoever is wise, let him understand these things;
Whoever is discerning, let him know them.
For the ways of the Lord are right,
And the righteous will walk in them,
But wrongdoers will stumble in them.
Vindicate the weak and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and destitute. But as for you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door, and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.Next verse!With image
