Provérbios 27:11 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 27:11

My son, be wise, and make my heart glad
That is, show thyself to be a wise man by thy words and actions; endeavour to get a good share of wisdom and knowledge, and make a good use of it, and that will rejoice my heart; as nothing more gladdens the heart of a parent than the wisdom and prudent behaviour of his son; see ( Proverbs 10:1 ) ( Proverbs 23:15 Proverbs 23:24 Proverbs 23:25 ) ;

that I may answer him that reproacheth me;
with begetting a foolish son, or a wicked man; or making him such by ill examples; or through neglect of education; or by using too much severity in it.

Provérbios 27:11 In-Context

9 Perfume e incenso trazem alegria ao coração;do conselho sincero do homemnasce uma bela amizade.
10 Não abandone o seu amigo nem o amigo de seu pai;quando for atingido pela adversidade não vá para a casa de seu irmão;melhor é o vizinho próximo do que o irmão distante.
11 Seja sábio, meu filho, e traga alegria ao meu coração;poderei então responder a quem me desprezar.
12 O prudente percebe o perigo e busca refúgio;o inexperiente segue adiante e sofre as consequências.
13 Tome-se a veste de quem serve de fiador ao estranho;sirva ela de penhor de quem dá garantia a uma mulher leviana.
