23:15 My child, ¹  if your heart is wise,

then my heart also will be glad;

23:16 my soul ²  will rejoice

when your lips speak what is right. ³ 

23:24 The father of a righteous person will rejoice greatly; ⁴ 

whoever fathers a wise child ⁵  will have joy in him.

23:25 May your father and your mother have joy;

may she who bore you rejoice. ⁶
