The NAS Strong's Version
Book of Proverbs Chapter 23 Proverbs 23:19-28 [ Verse 23 in Original: Hebrew / Greek ] [ Read Chapter | Discuss these Verses ] 19 Listen , my son , and be wise , And direct your heart in the way . 20 Do not be with heavy drinkers of wine , Or with gluttonous eaters of meat ; 21 For the heavy drinker and the glutton will come to poverty , And drowsiness will clothe one with rags . 22 Listen to your father who begot you, And do not despise your mother when she is old . 23 Buy truth , and do not sell it, Get wisdom and instruction and understanding . 24 The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice , And he who sires a wise son will be glad in him. 25 Let your father and your mother be glad , And let her rejoice who gave birth to you. 26 Give me your heart , my son , And let your eyes delight in my ways . 27 For a harlot is a deep pit And an adulterous woman is a narrow well . 28 Surely she lurks as a robber , And increases the faithless among men .
