1 A Song of the Ascents. O the happiness of every one fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.

2 The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.

10 A woman of worth who doth find? Yea, far above rubies [is] her price.

12 Honour thy father and thy mother, so that thy days are prolonged on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee.

24 Whoso is sparing his rod is hating his son, And whoso is loving him hath hastened him chastisement.

8 Hear, my son, the instruction of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother,

9 For a graceful wreath [are] they to thy head, And chains to thy neck.

20 A wise son rejoiceth a father. And a foolish man is despising his mother.

9 Only, take heed to thyself, and watch thy soul exceedingly, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they turn aside from thy heart, all days of thy life; and thou hast made them known to thy sons, and to thy sons sons.

4 The love is long-suffering, it is kind, the love doth not envy, the love doth not vaunt itself, is not puffed up,

5 doth not act unseemly, doth not seek its own things, is not provoked, doth not impute evil,

6 rejoiceth not over the unrighteousness, and rejoiceth with the truth;

7 all things it beareth, all it believeth, all it hopeth, all it endureth.

6 Give instruction to a youth about his way, Even when he is old he turneth not from it.

1 The children! obey your parents in the Lord, for this is righteous;

2 honour thy father and mother,

3 which is the first command with a promise, That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live a long time upon the land.

25 Strength and honour [are] her clothing, And she rejoiceth at a latter day.

26 Her mouth she hath opened in wisdom, And the law of kindness [is] on her tongue.

27 She [is] watching the ways of her household, And bread of sloth she eateth not.

28 Her sons have risen up, and pronounce her happy, Her husband, and he praiseth her,

29 Many [are] the daughters who have done worthily, Thou hast gone up above them all.

30 The grace [is] false, and the beauty [is] vain, A woman fearing Jehovah, she may boast herself.

3 Lo, an inheritance of Jehovah [are] sons, A reward [is] the fruit of the womb.

13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so do I comfort you, Yea, in Jerusalem ye are comforted.
