Verse 6 is found in chapter 10 of Proverbs. Chapter 10 begins an extensive collection of brief proverbs traditionally attributed to Solomon. The contrast between a wise son and a foolish son introduces themes that recur throughout the collection: diligence, righteousness, wealth, honesty, and control of speech. The sayings do not describe a mechanical formula for every circumstance, but moral patterns through which the reader learns to discern the usual direction of particular behaviors.

Den Segen hat das Haupt des Gerechten; aber den Mund der Gottlosen wird ihr Frevel überfallen.
Bendiciones sobre la cabeza del justo: Mas violencia cubrirá la boca de los impíos.
Il y a des bénédictions sur la tête du juste, Mais la violence couvre la bouche des méchants.
Benedizioni sono sopra il capo del giusto; Ma la violenza coprirà la bocca degli empi
Bênçãos há sobre a cabeça do justo, mas a violência cobre a boca dos perversos.
福祉臨到義人頭上; 惡人的口藏匿殘暴。
