Wisdom teaches us to honour the Father (Prov 15)

 

The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.
All the days of the afflicted are evil, but the cheerful of heart has a continual feast.
Better is a little with the fear of the Lord than great treasure and trouble with it.
Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than a fattened ox and hatred with it.
A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger quiets contention.
The way of a sluggard is like a hedge of thorns, but the path of the upright is a level highway.
A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish man despises his mother.
Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense, but a man of understanding walks straight ahead.
Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.
To make an apt answer is a joy to a man, and a word in season, how good it is!
The path of life leads upward for the prudent, that he may turn away from Sheol beneath.
The Lord tears down the house of the proud but maintains the widow's boundaries.
The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the Lord, but gracious words are pure.
Whoever is greedy for unjust gain troubles his own household, but he who hates bribes will live.
The heart of the righteous ponders how to answer, but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.
The Lord is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous.
The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, and good news refreshes the bones.
The ear that listens to life-giving reproof will dwell among the wise.
Whoever ignores instruction despises himself, but he who listens to reproof gains intelligence.
The fear of the Lord is instruction in wisdom, and humility comes before honour.
