{22:2} The lazy man is pelted with the dung of oxen, and all who touch him will brush off their hands.
{22:3} An undisciplined son is the shame of his father, but an undisciplined daughter will be to his degradation.
{22:4} A prudent daughter brings an inheritance to her husband. But she who causes shame will be a disgrace to him who conceived her.
{22:5} She who is bold shames her father and her husband, and she will not be less offensive to the impious. For she will be held in dishonor by both.
{22:6} An untimely explanation is like music in a time of mourning. But the sharp correction and doctrine of wisdom are ever timely.
{22:7} Whoever teaches the foolish is like someone who glues together a broken pot.
