Proverbs 13:9-14

1. 9 The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.

2. 10 Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.

3. 11 Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.

4. 12 Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

5. 13 Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.

6. 14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
