19 Listen, my son, and be wise;

keep your mind on the right course.

20 Don’t associate with those who drink too much wine  *

or with those who gorge themselves on meat.  *

21 For the drunkard and the glutton will become poor,

and grogginess will clothe them in rags.  *

22 Listen to your father who gave you life,

and don’t despise your mother when  *  she is old.  *
