⁸ And we have kept the rules of Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, in everything which he gave us orders to do, drinking no wine all our days, we and our wives and our sons and our daughters;

²⁰ Children, do the orders of your fathers and mothers in all things, for this is pleasing to the Lord.

⁸ My son, give ear to the training of your father, and do not give up the teaching of your mother:

⁹ For they will be a crown of grace for your head, and chain-ornaments about your neck.

¹ Give ear, my sons, to the teaching of a father; give attention so that you may have knowledge:

² For I give you good teaching; do not give up the knowledge you are getting from me.

¹⁰ Give ear, O my son, and let your heart be open to my sayings; and long life will be yours.

²⁰ My son, keep the rule of your father, and have in memory the teaching of your mother:

¹ A wise son is a lover of teaching, but the ears of the haters of authority are shut to sharp words.
