3 Lo, children [are] the inheritance of the LORD; the fruit of the womb [is] a reward.
4 As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so [are] the sons of the young.
5 Blessed [is] the man who has his quiver full of them; they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
13 Watch! Stand fast in the faith! Be men! Be strong!

23 And bring the fattened calf here and kill [it]. And let us eat and be merry,
24 He who spares his rod hates his son, but he who loves him chastens him early.
24 The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice; and he who fathers a wise [child] shall have joy from him.
6 Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
7 The just walks in his integrity; his sons [are] blessed after him.
26 In the fear of the LORD [is] strong hope, and His sons shall have a place of refuge.
15 And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served Beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
12 Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD your God gives you.
