Proverbs 23:22-28

²²Hear thy father, that begat thee; and despise not thy mother, when she is eld.

²³Buy thou truth, and do not thou sell wisdom, and doctrine, and understanding.

²⁴The father of a just or rightwise man joyeth full out with joy; he that begat a wise man, shall be glad in him.

²⁵Thy father and thy mother have joy, and he that begat thee, make full out joy.

²⁶My son, give thine heart to me, and thine eyes keep my ways.

²⁷For a whore is a deep ditch, and an alien woman, is a strait pit.

²⁸She setteth ambush in the way, as a thief; and shall add despisers in men, that is, shall multiply despisers of God among men.
