Homes built on God's word. 12 verses, King James Version.
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
