Listento your fatherwho begotyou, And do not despiseyour motherwhenshe is old.
Hear,my son,your father'sinstructionAnd do not forsakeyour mother'steaching;
A wisesonmakesa fatherglad,But a foolishmandespiseshis mother.
There is a kindof [man] who curseshis fatherAnd does not blesshis mother.
The eyethat mocksa fatherAnd scornsa mother,The ravensof the valleywill pickit out, And the youngeagleswill eatit.
My son,observethe commandmentof your fatherAnd do not forsakethe teachingof your mother;
Everyoneof you shall reverencehis motherand his father,and you shall keepMy sabbaths;I am the LORDyour God.
You shall riseup beforethe grayheadedand honorthe aged,and you shall revereyour God;I am the LORD.
"For Mosessaid,HONORYOUR FATHERAND YOUR MOTHER;and, 'HE WHO SPEAKS EVILOF FATHERORMOTHER,IS TO BE PUTTO DEATH';
Cursedis he who dishonorshis fatheror mother.'And allthe peopleshall say,'Amen.'
