Proverbs 17:21

WYC

NIV

21 A fool is born in his shame; but neither the father shall be glad in a fool. (A fool is born to his parents? shame; and the father shall never be glad, or have joy, over his foolish son.)
21 To have a fool for a child brings grief; there is no joy for the parent of a godless fool.
