Proverbs 13:1-7

1 A wise son heareth his father's instruction, but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

2 A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth, but the soul of the transgressor shall eat violence.

3 He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his life, but he that openeth wide his lips shall meet destruction.

4 The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing, but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

5 A righteous man hateth lying, but a wicked man is loathsome, and cometh to shame.

6 Righteousness keepeth him that is upright in the way, but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

7 There is one that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing; there is one that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.
