Shirikisha

The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who begets a wise son will be glad in him.

Do not wear yourself out to get rich; be wise enough to desist.

Surely there is a future, and your hope will not be cut off.

Do not let your heart envy sinners, but always continue in the fear of the LORD.

Do not withhold discipline from your children; if you beat them with a rod, they will not die.

Apply your mind to instruction and your ear to words of knowledge.

When your eyes light upon it, it is gone; for suddenly it takes wings to itself, flying like an eagle toward heaven.

Listen to your father who begot you, and do not despise your mother when she is old.
