    Proverbs 13
    • 1   A wise son listens to his father’s instruction, but a scoffer doesn’t listen to rebuke.
    • 2   By the fruit of his lips, a man enjoys good things; but the unfaithful crave violence.
    • 3   He who guards his mouth guards his soul. One who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.
    • 4   The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing, but the desire of the diligent shall be fully satisfied.
    • 5   A righteous man hates lies, but a wicked man brings shame and disgrace.
    • 6   Righteousness guards the way of integrity, but wickedness overthrows the sinner.
    • 7   There are some who pretend to be rich, yet have nothing. There are some who pretend to be poor, yet have great wealth.
    • 8   The ransom of a man’s life is his riches, but the poor hear no threats.
    • 9   The light of the righteous shines brightly, but the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out.
    • 10   Pride only breeds quarrels, but with ones who take advice is wisdom.
    • 11   Wealth gained dishonestly dwindles away, but he who gathers by hand makes it grow.
    • 12   Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when longing is fulfilled, it is a tree of life.
    • 13   Whoever despises instruction will pay for it, but he who respects a command will be rewarded.
    • 14   The teaching of the wise is a spring of life, to turn from the snares of death.
    • 15   Good understanding wins favor; but the way of the unfaithful is hard.
    • 16   Every prudent man acts from knowledge, but a fool exposes folly.
    • 17   A wicked messenger falls into trouble, but a trustworthy envoy gains healing.
    • 18   Poverty and shame come to him who refuses discipline, but he who heeds correction shall be honored.
    • 19   Longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul, but fools detest turning from evil.
    • 20   One who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.
    • 21   Misfortune pursues sinners, but prosperity rewards the righteous.
    • 22   A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored for the righteous.
    • 23   An abundance of food is in poor people’s fields, but injustice sweeps it away.
    • 24   One who spares the rod hates his son, but one who loves him is careful to discipline him.
    • 25   The righteous one eats to the satisfying of his soul, but the belly of the wicked goes hungry.
