Proverbs 13:1-6

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

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

3. 3 He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

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

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

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