Proverbs 22:6-8

Contemporary English Version

^6 (A) Teach your children
    right from wrong,
and when they are grown
    they will still do right.
⁷ The poor are ruled by the rich,
and those who borrow
    are slaves of moneylenders.
⁸ Troublemakers get in trouble,
and their terrible anger
    will get them nowhere.
