Proverbs 13:20
chevron_left
chevron_right
1
A wise son
heareth
his father’s instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.
2
A man shall eat good by the fruit of
his
mouth: but the soul of the transgressors
shall eat
violence.
3
He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life:
but
he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.
4
The soul of the sluggard desireth, and
hath
nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.
5
A righteous
man
hateth lying: but a wicked
man
is loathsome, and cometh to shame.
6
Righteousness keepeth
him that is
upright in the way: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.
7
There is that maketh himself rich, yet
hath
nothing:
there is
that maketh himself poor, yet
hath
great riches.
8
The ransom of a man’s life
are
his riches: but the poor heareth not rebuke.
9
The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
10
Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised
is
wisdom.
11
Wealth
gotten
by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.
12
Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but
when
the desire cometh,
it is
a tree of life.
13
Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.
14
The law of the wise
is
a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
15
Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors
is
hard.
16
Every prudent
man
dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth open
his
folly.
17
A wicked messenger falleth into mischief: but a faithful ambassador
is
health.
18
Poverty and shame
shall be to
him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.
19
The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul: but
it is
abomination to fools to depart from evil.
He that walketh with wise
men
shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
21
Evil pursueth sinners: but to the righteous good shall be repayed.
22
A good
man
leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children: and the wealth of the sinner
is
laid up for the just.
23
Much food
is in
the tillage of the poor: but there is
that is
destroyed for want of judgment.
24
He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
25
The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want.
