Proverbs 19:13-15

New International Reader's Version

¹³ A foolish child is a father’s ruin.
    A nagging wife is like dripping that never stops.

¹⁴ You will receive houses and wealth from your parents.
    But a wise wife is given by the Lord.

¹⁵ Anyone who doesn’t want to work sleeps his life away.
    And a person who refuses to work goes hungry.
