The proverbs of Solomon: A wise son makes a father rejoice, but a foolish son is a grief to his mother.

A wise son hears his father's instruction, but a scorner does not heed rebuke.

A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish man despises his mother.

The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice; and he who begets a wise child shall be glad because of him.
