Proverbs 23:25

American King James Version (1999)

Your father and your mother shall be glad, and she that bore you shall rejoice.

See the chapter Copy

A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bore him.

And her neighbors and her cousins heard how the Lord had showed great mercy on her; and they rejoiced with her.

My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproaches me.

My son, give me your heart, and let your eyes observe my ways.

The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son makes a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.

My son, if your heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.
