Proverbs 19:24-26

Jubilee Bible 2000

²⁴¶ The slothful man hides his hand in his bosom and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

²⁵¶ Smite a scorner, and the simple will become prudent, and reproving one that has understanding, he will understand knowledge.

²⁶¶ He that steals from his father and chases away his mother is a son that causes shame and brings reproach.

Proverbs 19:24-26

New International Version

²⁴A sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
he will not even bring it back to his mouth!^(A)

²⁵Flog a mocker, and the simple will learn prudence;
rebuke the discerning,^(B) and they will gain knowledge.^(C)

²⁶Whoever robs their father and drives out their mother^(D)
is a child who brings shame and disgrace.
