Proverbs 19:24-26

New Life Version

²⁴ The lazy man buries his hand in the dish, and will not even bring it to his mouth again.

²⁵ Hit a man who laughs at the truth, and the foolish may become wise. But speak strong words to one who has understanding, and he will get more learning.

²⁶ He who hurts his father and puts his mother out of the house is a son who causes much shame.
