Proverbs 19:24-27

²⁴Some people are extremely lazy; they put their hand in a dish to take some food but do not even lift the food up to their mouths.

²⁵If you punish someone who makes fun of those who are wise, those who ◄are naive/need to be instructed► will learn to do what is smart; if you rebuke those who are wise, they will listen to what you say and become wiser.

²⁶Anyone who mistreats/abuses his father or forces his mother to leave the home is a child who is acting shamefully and disgracefully.

²⁷My son, if you stop learning things, you will soon forget what you already know.
