Proverbs 13:18-25

18 Need and shame will be the fate of him who is uncontrolled by training; but he who takes note of teaching will be honoured.

19 To get one's desire is sweet to the soul, but to give up evil is disgusting to the foolish.

20 Go with wise men and be wise: but he who keeps company with the foolish will be broken.

21 Evil will overtake sinners, but the upright will be rewarded with good.

22 The heritage of the good man is handed down to his children's children; and the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the upright man.

23 There is much food in the ploughed land of the poor; but it is taken away by wrongdoing.

24 He who keeps back his rod is unkind to his son: the loving father gives punishment with care.

25 The upright man has food to the full measure of his desire, but there will be no food for the stomach of evil-doers.
