Exegesis
The verse employs mesh-participial clauses, where notzer {נוֹצֵר | nō·ṣer} ‘one who keeps’ and mĕvîn {מֵבִין | mĕ·vîn} ‘understanding’ highlight the positive character of the son.
In context — Proverbs 28:7
A son who keeps the law is understanding, but a companion of gluttons brings shame to his father .
