Proverbs 6:20

Warning Against Adultery

20
My son, observe the commandment of your father
And do not abandon the law of your mother;

Proverbs 23:22 - 23:25


22
Listen to your father who begot you,
And do not despise your mother when she is old.
23
Buy truth, and do not sell it,
Get wisdom and discipline and understanding.

24
The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice,
And he who begets a wise son will be glad in him.
25
Let your father and your mother be glad,
And let her rejoice who gave birth to you.

Proverbs 29:15

15
The rod and reproof give wisdom,
But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.
