25
Give a daughter in marriage, and you complete a great task; but give her to a sensible man.
26
Do you have a wife who pleases you? Do not divorce her; but do not trust yourself to one whom you detest.
27
With all your heart honor your father, and do not forget the birth pangs of your mother.
28
Remember that it was of your parents you were born; how can you repay what they have given to you?
29
With all your soul fear the Lord, and revere his priests.
