And we have obeyed the voice of our forefather Jonadab son of Rechab in all he commanded us. So we have not drunk wine all our lives—neither we nor our wives nor our sons and daughters.
Children, obey your parents in everything, for this is pleasing to the Lord.
Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction; pay attention and gain understanding.
Listen, my son, and receive my words, and the years of your life will be many.
Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction, and do not forsake the teaching of your mother.
My son, keep your father’s commandment, and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
A wise son heeds his father’s discipline, but a mocker does not listen to rebuke.
