"The proverbsª of Solomon.ª A wiseª sonª maketh a gladª° father:ª but a foolishª sonª [is] the heavinessª of his mother.ª" {Prv 10:1} + "A wiseª sonª maketh a gladª° father:ª but a foolishª manª despisethª° his mother.ª" {Prv 15:20} + "A foolishª sonª [is] the calamityª of his father:ª and the contentionsª of a wifeª [are] a continualª° dropping.ª" {Prv 19:13} + "And it came to pass¹ afterª this,¹ that Absalomª the sonª of Davidª had a fairª sister,ª whose nameª [was] Tamar;ª and Amnonª the sonª of Davidª lovedª° her. ... And Absalomª spakeª° unto¹ his brother Amnonª neither¹ goodª nor¹ bad:ª¹ for¹ Absalomª hatedª°¹ Amnon,ª becauseª¹¹ he had forcedª°¹ his sisterª Tamar.ª" {2Sm 13:1-22} + "Yea, I¹ hatedª°¹ all¹ my labourª which I¹¹ had takenª under¹ the sun:ª because I should leave²°¹¹ it unto the manª that shall be¹¹ afterª me. ... And who¹ knowethª° whether he shall be¹ a wiseª [man] or¹ a fool?ª yet shall he have ruleª° over all¹ my labourª wherein I have laboured,ª°¹ and wherein I have shewed myself wiseª°¹ under¹ the sun.ª This¹ [is] also¹ vanity.ª" {Ecc 2:18-19} |
