Let your father and your mother be glad, let she who bore you rejoice!

See the chapter Copy

The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son gives joy to his father, but a foolish son grief to his mother.

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

My son, if your heart is wise, then my heart also will be glad.

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

Be wise, my son, make my heart glad, so I may answer anyone who taunts me.

Her neighbors and relatives heard how Adonai had shown her His great mercy, and they began to rejoice with her.
