Genesis 9:18-27
The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth-Ham being the father of Canaan.19These three were Noah's sons, and from these the whole earth was peopled.
The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth-Ham being the father of Canaan.19These three were Noah's sons, and from these the whole earth was peopled.
20 Noah, a tiller of the soil, was the first to plant the vine. 21 He
drank some of the wine, and while he was drunk, he lay uncovered in his tent. 22 Ham,
father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside.
23 Shem and Japheth took a cloak and they both put it over their
shoulders, and walking backwards, covered their father's nakedness; they kept
their faces turned away, and they did not look at their father naked.
24 When Noah awoke from his stupor he learned what his youngest son had
done to him, 25 and said: Accursed be Canaan, he shall be his brothers' meanest slave. 26 He
added: Blessed be Yahweh, God of Shem, let Canaan be his slave! 27 May
God make space for Japheth, may he live in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be
his slave!

Deuteronomy 8:2-5
Remember the long road by which Yahweh your God led you for forty years in the desert, to humble you, to test you and know your inmost heart -- whether you would keep his commandments or not.3 He humbled you, he made you feel hunger, he fed you with manna which neither you nor your ancestors had ever known, to make you understand that human beings live not on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of Yahweh.4 The clothes on your back did not wear out and your feet were not swollen, all those forty years.

Tobit 4:3-4
He summoned his son Tobias and told him, 'When I die, give me an honorable burial. Honor your mother, and never abandon her all the days of your life. Do all that she wants, and give her no reason for sorrow. 4 Remember, my child, all the risks she ran for your sake when you were in her womb. And when she dies, bury her at my side in the same grave.

Psalm 128:3-6
Your wife a fruitful vine in the inner places of your house. Your children round your table like shoots of an olive tree. 4 Such are the blessings that fall on those who fear Yahweh. 5 May Yahweh bless you from Zion! May you see Jerusalem prosper all the days of your life, 6 and live to see your children's children!

Proverbs 4:1-5
Listen, my children, to a father's instruction; pay attention, and learn what understanding is. 2 What I am offering you is sound doctrine: do not forsake my teaching. 3 I too was once a child with a father, in my mother's eyes a tender child, unique.

Proverbs 30:17
The eye which looks jeeringly on a father, and scorns the obedience due to a mother, will be pecked out by the ravens of the valley, and eaten by the vultures.

2 for the Lord honors the father above his children and upholds the
rights of a mother over her sons.
3 Whoever respects a father expiates sins,
4 whoever honors a mother is like someone amassing a fortune.
5 Whoever respects a father will in turn be happy with children, the day
he prays for help, he will be heard.
6 Long life comes to anyone who honors a father, whoever obeys the Lord
makes a mother happy.
7 Such a one serves parents as well as the Lord.
8 Respect your father in deed as well as word, so that blessing may come
on you from him;
9 since a father's blessing makes his children's house firm, while a
mother's curse tears up its foundations.
10 Do not make a boast of disgrace overtaking your father, your father's
disgrace reflects no honor on you;
11 for a person's own honor derives from the respect shown to his father,
and a mother held in dishonor is a reproach to her children.
12 My child, support your father in his old age, do not grieve him during
his life.
13 Even if his mind should fail, show him sympathy, do not despise him in
your health and strength;
14 for kindness to a father will not be forgotten but will serve as
reparation for your sins.
15 On your own day of ordeal God will remember you: like frost in
sunshine, your sins will melt away.
16 Whoever deserts a father is no better than a blasphemer, and whoever
distresses a mother is accursed of the Lord.
Sirach 6:18
My child, from your earliest youth choose instruction, and till your hair is white you will keep finding wisdom.

Sirach 30:1-13
Whoever loves his son will beat him frequently so that in after years the son may be his comfort.
Whoever loves his son will beat him frequently so that in after years the son may be his comfort.
2
Whoever is strict with his son will reap the benefit, and be able to boast of
him to his acquaintances.
3
Whoever educates his son will be the envy of his enemy, and will be proud of
him among his friends.
4
Even when the father dies, he might well not be dead, since he leaves his
likeness behind him.
5
In life he has had the joy of his company, dying, he has no anxieties.
6
He leaves an avenger against his enemies and a rewarder of favors for his
friends.
7
Whoever coddles his son will bandage his wounds, his heart will turn over at
every cry.
8
A badly broken-in horse turns out stubborn, a son left to himself turns out
headstrong.
9
Pamper your child and he will terrorize you, play along with him and he will
bring you sorrow.
10
Do not laugh with him, or one day you will weep with him and end up gnashing
your teeth.
11
While he is young, do not allow him his freedom and do not wink at his
mistakes.
12
Bend his neck in youth, bruise his ribs while he is a child, or else he will
grow stubborn and disobedient, and hurt you very deeply.
13
Be strict with your son, and persevere with him, or you will rue his insolence.
Sirach 42:9-11
Unknown to her, a daughter keeps her father awake, the worry she gives him drives away his sleep: in her youth, in case she never marries, married, in case she should be disliked, 10 as a virgin, in case she should be defiled and found with child in her father's house, having a husband, in case she goes astray, married, in case she should be sterile!

11 Your daughter is
headstrong? Keep a sharp look-out that she does not make you the laughing-stock
of your enemies, the talk of the town, the object of common gossip, and put you
to public shame.
2 'Why do your disciples break away from the tradition of the elders?
They eat without washing their hands.'
3 He answered, 'And why do you break away from the commandment of God for
the sake of your tradition?
4 For God said, "Honor your father and your mother" and
"Anyone who curses his father or mother will be put to death."
5 But you say, "If anyone says to his father or mother: Anything I
might have used to help you is dedicated to God,
6 he is rid of his duty to father or mother." In this way you have
made God's word ineffective by means of your tradition.
Ephesians 6:1-4
Children, be obedient to your parents in the Lord -- that is what uprightness demands. 2 The first commandment that has a promise attached to it is: Honor your father and your mother, 3 and the promise is: so that you may have long life and prosper in the land.

4 And parents, never drive your children to resentment but bring them up
with correction and advice inspired by the Lord.
Colossians 3:20-21
Children, be obedient to your parents always, because that is what will please the Lord.21 Parents, do not irritate your children or they will lose heart.

1 Timothy 5:4
If a widow has children or grandchildren, they are to learn first of all to do their duty to their own families and repay their debt to their parents, because this is what pleases God.

Perseverance is part of your training; God
is treating you as his sons. Has there ever been any son whose father did not
train him? 8If you were not
getting this training, as all of you are, then you would be not sons but
bastards.
9Besides, we
have all had our human fathers who punished us, and we respected them for it;
all the more readily ought we to submit to the Father of spirits, and so earn
life. 10Our human fathers were training us
for a short life and according to their own lights; but he does it all for our
own good, so that we may share his own holiness.
11Of course, any discipline is at the time a matter for grief, not joy; but later, in those who have undergone it, it bears fruit in peace and uprightness. 12So steady all weary hands and trembling knees.
