Proverbs 23:22
King James Version
“Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old.”
Context
19Hear thou, my son, and be wise, and guide thine heart in the way.
20Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:
21For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe with rags.
22Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old.
23Buy the truth, and sell not; wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.
24The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise shall have joy of him.
25Thy father and thy mother shall be glad, and she that bare thee shall rejoice.
