Proverbs 13:1-6

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.
