PROVERBS 19:24-27

²⁴The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

²⁵smite a scorner, and the simple will learn prudence: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.

²⁶He that spoileth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is a son that causeth shame and bringeth reproach.

²⁷Cease, my son, to hear instruction only to err from the words of knowledge.
