20Don't join in with people who drink too much wine or who stuff themselves with meat.
21For people who get drunk and overeat lose all they've got, and they spend so much time dozing that all they have left to wear is rags.
22Pay attention to your father, and don't disregard your mother when she's old.
23Invest in truth—and don't sell it! Invest in wisdom, instruction, and understanding.
24Children who do right make their fathers very happy; a wise son brings joy to his father.
