22 A slothful man is compared to a stone that is defiled.

Everyone will hiss at him in his disgrace.

2 A slothful man is compared to the filth of a dunghill.

Anyone who picks it up will shake it out of his hand.

3 An undisciplined child is a disgrace to his father,

and a foolish daughter is born to his loss.

4 A prudent daughter will inherit a husband of her own.

She who brings shame is the grief of her father.

5 She who is arrogant brings shame on father and husband.

She will be despised by both of them.

6 Ill-timed conversation is like music in mourning,

but stripes and correction are wisdom in every season.
