Ecclesiasticus 3:9 Context
7He that feareth the Lord, will honour his father, and will doe seruice vnto his parents, as to his masters. 8Honour thy father and mother, both in word and deed, that a blessing may come vpon thee from them. 9For the blessing of the father establisheth the houses of children, but the curse of the mother rooteth out foundations. 10Glory not in the dishonour of thy father, for thy fathers dishonour is no glory vnto thee. 11For the glory of a man, is from the honour of his father, and a mother in dishonour, is a reproch to the children.
