Warnings In The Word
1 A (A) wise son accepts his father's discipline, but a (B) scoffer does not listen to rebuke.
2 From the fruit of a man's mouth he (C) enjoys good, but the desire of the treacherous is (D) violence.
3 The one who (E) guards his mouth preserves his life; the one who (F) opens wide his lips comes to ruin.
4 The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, but the soul of the diligent is made fat.
5 A righteous man (G) hates falsehood, but a wicked man (H) acts disgustingly and shamefully.
6 Righteousness (I) guards the one whose way is blameless, but wickedness subverts the sinner.
7 There is one who (J) pretends to be rich, but has nothing; another pretends to be (K) poor, but has great wealth.
8 The ransom of a man's life is his wealth, but the poor hears no rebuke.
9 The (L) light of the righteous [a] rejoices, but the (M) lamp of the wicked goes out.
10 Through insolence comes nothing but strife, but wisdom is with those who receive counsel.
11 Wealth obtained by fraud dwindles, but the one who gathers by labor increases it.
12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but desire fulfilled is a tree of life.
13 The one who (N) despises the word will be in debt to it, but the one who fears the commandment will be (O) rewarded.
14 The teaching of the wise is a (P) fountain of life, to turn aside from the (Q) snares of death.
-Proverbs 13:1-14
