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.
6. For he left behind him a defender of his house against his enemies, and one that will requite kindness to his friends.
7. For the souls of his sons he shall bind up his wounds, and at every cry his bowels shall be troubled.
8. A horse not broken becometh stubborn, and a child left to himself will become headstrong.
9. Give thy son his way, and he shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he shall make thee sorrowful.
10. Laugh not with him, lest thou have sorrow, and at the last thy teeth be set on edge.
11. Give him not liberty in his youth, and wink not at his devices.
