Proverbs 23:18-24

¹⁸For surely there is an end; and thy expectation shall not be cut off.

¹⁹Hear thou, my son, and be wise, and guide thy heart in the way.

²⁰Be not among wine-bibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:

²¹For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags.

²²Hearken to thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old.

²³Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.

²⁴The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him.
