Proverbs 19:24-26
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
24 The lazy person buries a hand in the dish
and will not even bring it back to the mouth.(A)
25 Strike a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence;
reprove the intelligent, and they will gain knowledge.(B)
26 Those who do violence to their father and chase away their mother
are children who cause shame and bring reproach.
