NETBible

A wise child 1  brings joy to his father, but a foolish person 2  despises 3  his mother.

NET Notes

tn Heb “son.”

tn Heb “a fool of a man,” a genitive of specification.

sn The proverb is almost the same as 10:1, except that “despises” replaces “grief.” This adds the idea of the callousness of the one who inflicts grief on his mother (D. Kidner, Proverbs [TOTC], 116).
