Proverbs 13

Take note of these:

Proverbs 13:1

King James Version

13 A wise son heareth his father's instruction: 

but a scorner heareth not rebuke.


Proverbs 13:2-5

King James Version

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.


Proverbs 13:6-11

King James Version

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.


Proverbs 13:12-19

King James Version

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.


Proverbs 13:20-21

King James Version

20 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.


Proverbs 13:22-25

King James Version

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.
