24A righteous father brings up his children well; And his soul rejoices over a wise son.
25Let thy father and thy mother rejoice over thee, And let her that bore thee be glad.
26My son, give me thy heart, And let thine eyes observe my ways.
27For a strange house is a vessel full of holes; And a strange well is narrow.
28For such a one shall perish suddenly; And every transgressor shall be cut off.
29Who has woe? who trouble? who has quarrels? And who vexations and disputes? Who has bruises without a cause? Whose eyes are livid?
