Pro Proverbs, chapter Proverbs of Solomon, chapter 13
A wise son—the instruction of a father, || And a scorner—he has not heard rebuke. Pro 15:12A man eats good from the fruit of the mouth, || And the soul of the treacherous—violence. Pro 12:14Whoever is keeping his mouth, is keeping his soul, || Whoever is opening wide his lips—ruin to him! Pro 18:20; 1Pe 3:10The soul of the slothful is desiring, and does not have. And the soul of the diligent is made fat. Pro 21:25The righteous hates a false word, || And the wicked causes abhorrence, and is confounded. Psa 119:163Righteousness keeps him who is perfect in the way, || And wickedness overthrows a sin offering. There is [he] who is making himself rich, and has nothing, || Who is making himself poor, and wealth [is] abundant. Pro 12:9The ransom of a man’s life [are] his riches, || And the poor has not heard rebuke. Pro 10:15The light of the righteous rejoices, || And the lamp of the wicked is extinguished. Pro 24:20; Psa 37:21A vain man causes debate through pride, || And wisdom [is] with the counseled. Wealth from vanity becomes little, || And whoever is gathering by the hand becomes great. Pro 28:8Hope prolonged is making the heart sick, || And a tree of life [is] the coming desire. Whoever is despising the word is destroyed for it, || And whoever is fearing the command is repaid. Pro 1:24; Hos 4:6The law of the wise [is] a fountain of life, || To turn aside from snares of death. Good understanding gives grace, || And the way of the treacherous [is] hard. Pro 10:11Every prudent one deals with knowledge, || And a fool spreads out folly. A wicked messenger falls into evil, || And a faithful ambassador is healing. Whoever is refusing instruction—poverty and shame, || And whoever is observing reproof is honored. A desire accomplished is sweet to the soul, || And an abomination to fools || [Is] to turn from evil. Whoever is walking with wise men is wise, || And a companion of fools suffers evil. Evil pursues sinners, || And good repays the righteous. A good man causes sons’ sons to inherit, || And the sinner’s wealth [is] laid up for the righteous. Job 27:17Abundance of food—the tillage of the poor, || And substance is consumed without judgment. Whoever is sparing his rod is hating his son, || And whoever is loving him has hurried his discipline. Pro 23:13The righteous is eating to the satiety of his soul, || And the belly of the wicked lacks!Isa 65:13
