Proverbs 15:19-21

New Catholic Bible

¹⁹ The path of the idler^[a] is covered with thorns,
    but the path of the upright is a broad highway.
²⁰ A wise son is a joy to his father,
    but a foolish son has no respect for his mother.
²¹ Folly delights the one without sense,
    but a man of understanding follows a straight path.
