Proverbs 10:1-3

Amplified Bible

Contrast of the Righteous and the Wicked

10 The proverbs of Solomon:

A wise son makes a father glad,
But a foolish [stubborn] son [who refuses to learn] is a grief to his mother.
²
Treasures of wickedness and ill-gotten gains do not profit,
But righteousness and moral integrity in daily life rescues from death.
³
The Lord will not allow the ^[a]righteous to hunger [God will meet all his needs],
But He will reject and cast away the craving of the wicked.^(A)
