Proverbs 15:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹ The way of people who don’t want to work is blocked with thorns.
    But the path of honest people is a wide road.

²⁰ A wise son makes his father glad.
    But a foolish son hates his mother.

²¹ A person who has no sense enjoys doing foolish things.
    But a person who has understanding walks straight ahead.
