Proverbs 20:3-13

3 It is an honour for a man to cease from strife, but every fool will be meddling.
4 The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore he shall beg in harvest and have nothing.
5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water, but a man of intelligence will draw it out.
6 Most men will proclaim each one his own mercy, but who can find a man of truth?
7 The just man who walks in his integrity, blessed shall be his sons after him.
8 A king that sits in the throne of judgment scatters away all evil with his eyes.
9 Who shall be able to say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
10 Double weights and double measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD.
11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work is pure and whether it is right.
12 The hearing ear and the seeing eye, the LORD has made both of them.
13 Do not love sleep lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
