Proverbs 23:21-23
Names of God Bible

21 because both a drunk and a glutton will become poor.
    Drowsiness will dress a person in rags.

22 Listen to your father since you are his son,
    and do not despise your mother because she is old.
23 Buy truth (and do not sell it),
    that is, buy wisdom, discipline, and understanding.
