20 Children, obey your parents in everything, for this is pleasing in the Lord.
2 "Honor your father and your mother." This is the first commandment with a promise,
3 "That it may go well with you and you may be long-lived in the land."
1 CHILDREN, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
2 "Honor your father and your mother." This is the first commandment with a promise,
3 "That it may go well with you and you may be long-lived in the land."
4 And you, fathers, do not irritate your children, but bring them up in the education and admonition of the Lord.
3 He answered them, "And why do you violate the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
4 For God said, 'Honor thy father and thy mother,' and, 'If any one speaks evil of father or mother, let him surely die.'
8 If any one does not provide for his own, and especially those of his own household, he has disowned the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
1 I WOULD have you know this, that in the last days trying times will come;
2 for people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boasters, haughty, abusive, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, profane,
3 without family affection, relentless, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, haters of good,
3 He answered them, "And why do you violate the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
4 For God said, 'Honor thy father and thy mother,' and, 'If any one speaks evil of father or mother, let him surely die.'
5 But you say, 'Whoever says to his father or to his mother, Whatever benefit you get from me is now dedicated to God,
6 he shall not honor his father or his mother.' So you have nullified the command of God for the sake of your tradition.
4 If any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to act piously toward their own family and to repay what they owe to their parents and grandparents. For this is pleasing in the sight of God.
