13A foolish son is the calamity of his father; and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
14House and riches are the inheritance of fathers; but a prudent wife is from the LORD.
15Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and the idle soul shall suffer hunger.
16He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his soul; but he that despiseth His ways shall die.
17He that is gracious unto the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and his good deed will He repay unto him.
