Thus we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, or our daughters,
Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is well pleasing to the Lord.
My son, keep your father’s command, And do not forsake the law of your mother.
Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And the years of your life will be many.
A wise son heeds his father’s instruction, But a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
