NETBible

A foolish child is a grief¹ to his father, and bitterness to the mother who bore him.²

NET Notes

¹sn The Hebrew noun means “vexation, anger, grief.”

²tn Heb “to the one who bore him.” Because the participle is feminine singular in Hebrew, this has been translated as “the mother who bore him.”

²sn The proverb is similar to v. 21, 10:1, and 15:20.
