Proverbs cont



Fathers/Sons

23:24
 The father of a righteous child has great joy;
    a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him.

10:1
 A wise son brings joy to his father,
    but a foolish son brings grief to his mother.

13:1
 A wise son heeds his father’s instruction,
    but a mocker does not respond to rebukes.

15:5
 A fool spurns a parent’s discipline,
    but whoever heeds correction shows prudence.

17:21
 To have a fool for a child brings grief;
    there is no joy for the parent of a godless fool.

17:25
 A foolish son brings grief to his father
    and bitterness to the mother who bore him.

19:18
 Discipline your children, for in that there is hope;
    do not be a willing party to their death.

22:15
 Folly is bound up in the heart of a child,
    but the rod of discipline will drive it far away.
