19 My son/child, listen carefully to me and become wise,

and think about ◄all that you do/your behavior►.

20 Do not associate with those who drink a lot of ◄wine/strong drink►

or with those who ◄are gluttons/eat more than they should►,

21 because drunkards and gluttons will become poor;

and if all that you do is eat and sleep, you will soon ◄be wearing rags/not have any money to buy clothes►.

22 Pay attention to what your father tells you,

and ◄do not neglect/take care of► [LIT] your mother when she is old.
