Proverbs 15:19-21

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁹The way of the slothful [is] as a hedge of briers, And the path of the upright is raised up.

²⁰A wise son rejoiceth a father. And a foolish man is despising his mother.

²¹Folly is joy to one lacking heart, And a man of intelligence directeth [his] going.

Proverbs 15:19-21

New International Version

¹⁹The way of the sluggard is blocked with thorns,^(A)
but the path of the upright is a highway.

²⁰A wise son brings joy to his father,^(B)
but a foolish man despises his mother.

²¹Folly brings joy to one who has no sense,^(C)
but whoever has understanding keeps a straight course.
