Proverbs 13:1-17 - ESV - A wise son hears his father's instruction, but ...

1 A wise son hears his father's instruction, but ¹a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.

2 From the fruit of his mouth a man ²eats what is good, but the desire of the treacherous ³is for violence.

3 ⁴Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life; ⁵he who opens wide his lips ⁶comes to ruin.

4 ⁷The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent ⁸is richly supplied.

5 The righteous hates falsehood, but the wicked brings shame^a and disgrace.

6 ⁹Righteousness guards him whose ¹⁰way is blameless, but sin overthrows the wicked.

7 ¹¹One pretends to be rich, yet has nothing; ¹²another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.

8 The ransom of a man's life is his wealth, but a poor man ¹³hears no threat.

9 ¹⁴The light of the righteous rejoices, but ¹⁵the lamp of the wicked will be put out.

10 ¹⁶By insolence comes nothing but strife, but with those who take advice is wisdom.

11 ¹⁷Wealth gained hastily^b will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it.

12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, ¹⁸but a desire fulfilled is ¹⁹a tree of life.

13 Whoever ²⁰despises ²¹the word brings destruction on himself, but he who reveres the commandment will be ²²rewarded.

14 The teaching of the wise is ²³a fountain of life, that one may ²⁴turn away from the snares of death.

15 ²⁵Good sense wins ²⁶favor, but the way of the treacherous is their ruin.^c

16 ²⁷In everything the prudent acts with knowledge, ²⁸but a fool flaunts his folly.

17 A wicked messenger falls into trouble, but ²⁹a faithful envoy brings healing.
