Proverbs 13 (New International Version)

Proverbs 13

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

2 From the fruit of
his lips a man enjoys good things,
but
the unfaithful have a craving for violence.

3 He who guards his
lips guards his life,
but he who speaks
rashly will come to ruin.

4 The sluggard
craves and gets nothing,
but the
desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.

5 The righteous
hate what is false,
but the wicked
bring shame and disgrace.

6 Righteousness
guards the man of integrity,
but
wickedness overthrows the sinner.

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

8 A man's riches
may ransom his life,
but a poor man
hears no threat.

9 The light of the
righteous shines brightly,
but the lamp
of the wicked is snuffed out.

10 Pride only
breeds quarrels,
but wisdom is found in
those who take advice.

11 Dishonest money
dwindles away,
but he who gathers money
little by little makes it grow.

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

13 He who scorns
instruction will pay for it,
but he who
respects a command is rewarded.

14 The teaching of
the wise is a fountain of life,
turning
a man from the snares of death.

15 Good
understanding wins favor,
but the way
of the unfaithful is hard.

16 Every prudent
man acts out of knowledge,
but a fool
exposes his folly.

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

18 He who ignores
discipline comes to poverty and shame,

but whoever heeds correction is honored.

19 A longing
fulfilled is sweet to the soul,
but
fools detest turning from evil.

20 He who walks
with the wise grows wise,
but a
companion of fools suffers harm.

21 Misfortune
pursues the sinner,
but prosperity is
the reward of the righteous.

22 A good man
leaves an inheritance for his children's children,

but a sinner's wealth is stored up for
the righteous.

23 A poor man's
field may produce abundant food,
but
injustice sweeps it away.

24 He who spares
the rod hates his son,
but he who loves
him is careful to discipline him.

25 The righteous
eat to their hearts' content,
but the
stomach of the wicked goes hungry.
