Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
16 Yes, my heart will rejoice, When your lips speak what is right.
17 Don`t let your heart envy sinners; But rather fear Yahweh all the day long.
18 Indeed surely there is a future hope, And your hope will not be cut off.
19 Listen, my son, and be wise, And keep your heart on the right path!
20 Don`t be among ones drinking too much wine, Or those who gorge themselves on meat:
21 For the drunkard and the glutton shall become poor; And drowsiness clothes them in rags.
22 Listen to your father who gave you life, And don`t despise your mother when she is old.
