Proverbs 13:1-6

1 Wise children take their parents' advice, but whoever makes fun of wisdom won't listen to correction.

2 People will be rewarded for what they say, but those who can't be trusted want only violence.

3 Those who are careful about what they say protect their lives, but whoever speaks without thinking will be ruined.

4 The lazy will not get what they want, but those who work hard will.

5 Good people hate what is false, but the wicked do shameful and disgraceful things.

6 Doing what is right protects the honest person, but doing evil ruins the sinner.
