Whom So Ever

a wise son will become a good father or brother
but a foolish son will be the grief of his mother

whom so ever obtains treasures through wicked and ungodly deeds
will not be profitable nor sow prosperous seeds

whom so ever goes through life with a slack and lazy hand
will be poor in possessions, spirit and in land

whom so ever goes through life with diligence in their hearts
will be rich with the wisdom and the grace of The Lord God
