2. He that instructeth his son shall be praised in him, and shall glory in him in the midst of them of his household.

3. He that teacheth his son, maketh his enemy jealous, and in the midst of his friends he shall glory in him.

4. His father is dead, and he is as if he were not dead: for he hath left one behind him that is like himself.

5. While he lived he saw and rejoiced in him: and when he died he was not sorrowful, neither was he confounded before his enemies.
