There are people who curse their fathers and do not show their appreciation for their mothers.

If you make fun of your father or despise your mother in her old age, you ought to be eaten by vultures or have your eyes picked out by wild ravens.

"Respect your father and your mother, so that you may live a long time in the land that I am giving you.

"Whoever curses his father or his mother is to be put to death.

The LORD gave the following regulations. Any of you that curse your father or mother shall be put to death; you are responsible for your own death.

" 'God's curse on anyone who dishonors his father or mother.' "And all the people will answer, 'Amen!'

For God said, 'Respect your father and your mother,' and 'If you curse your father or your mother, you are to be put to death.'

For Moses commanded, 'Respect your father and your mother,' and, 'If you curse your father or your mother, you are to be put to death.'

they are excused from helping their father or mother.

The righteous are like a light shining brightly; the wicked are like a lamp flickering out.

A wicked person has no future---nothing to look forward to.

The light of the wicked will still be put out; its flame will never burn again.

The lamp in their tents will be darkened.

They will be driven out of the land of the living, driven from light into darkness.

Then the king told the servants, 'Tie him up hand and foot, and throw him outside in the dark. There he will cry and gnash his teeth.' "

Then the foolish ones said to the wise ones, 'Let us have some of your oil, because our lamps are going out.'

They are like wild waves of the sea, with their shameful deeds showing up like foam. They are like wandering stars, for whom God has reserved a place forever in the deepest darkness.
