12 Honour thy father and thy mother, so that thy days are prolonged on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee.

1 The children! obey your parents in the Lord, for this is righteous;2 honour thy father and mother,3 which is the first command with a promise, That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live a long time upon the land.

20 the children! obey the parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing to the Lord;

22 Hearken to thy father, who begat thee, And despise not thy mother when she hath become old.

26 Whoso is spoiling a father causeth a mother to flee, A son causing shame, and bringing confusion.

20 Whoso is vilifying his father and his mother, Extinguished is his lamp in blackness of darkness.

4 and if any widow have children or grandchildren, let them learn first to their own house to show piety, and to give back a recompense to the parents, for this is right and acceptable before God.

6 Give instruction to a youth about his way, Even when he is old he turneth not from it.

6 and these words which I am commanding thee to-day have been on thine heart,7 and thou hast repeated them to thy sons, and spoken of them in thy sitting in thine house, and in thy walking in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up,

8 Hear, my son, the instruction of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother,9 For a graceful wreath [are] they to thy head, And chains to thy neck.

4 And the fathers! provoke not your children, but nourish them in the instruction and admonition of the Lord.

21 the fathers! vex not your children, lest they be discouraged.

15 A rod and reproof give wisdom, And a youth let away is shaming his mother.

24 Whoso is sparing his rod is hating his son, And whoso is loving him hath hastened him chastisement.

7 if chastening ye endure, as to sons God beareth Himself to you, for who is a son whom a father doth not chasten?

3 Lo, an inheritance of Jehovah [are] sons, A reward [is] the fruit of the womb.4 As arrows in the hand of a mighty one, So [are] the sons of the young men.5 O the happiness of the man Who hath filled his quiver with them, They are not ashamed, For they speak with enemies in the gate!

6 Sons sons [are] the crown of old men, And the glory of sons [are] their fathers.

24 The father of the righteous rejoiceth greatly, The begetter of the wise rejoiceth in him.

1 Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son causeth a father to rejoice, And a foolish son [is] an affliction to his mother.

11 And of which of you -- the father -- if the son shall ask a loaf, a stone will he present to him? and if a fish, will he instead of a fish, a serpent present to him?12 and if he may ask an egg, will he present to him a scorpion?13 If, then, ye, being evil, have known good gifts to be giving to your children, how much more shall the Father who is from heaven give the Holy Spirit to those asking Him!

8 and if any one for his own -- and especially for those of the household -- doth not provide, the faith he hath denied, and than an unbeliever he is worse.

15 and if wrong in your eyes to serve Jehovah -- choose for you to-day whom ye do serve; -- whether the gods whom your fathers served, which [are] beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorite in whose land ye are dwelling; and I and my house -- we serve Jehovah.

24 therefore doth a man leave his father and his mother, and hath cleaved unto his wife, and they have become one flesh.

16 Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers -- each for his own sin, they are put to death.
