< Proverbs 13 >

1 A wise son is obedient to his father: but a disobedient son will be destroyed.
A son wise [the] discipline of a father and a mocker not he listens to a rebuke.
2 A good [man] shall eat of the fruits of righteousness: but the lives of transgressors shall perish before their time.
From [the] fruit of [the] mouth of a person he eats good thing[s] and [the] appetite of treacherous [people] [is] violence.
3 He that keeps his own mouth keeps his own life: but he that is hasty with his lips shall bring terror upon himself.
[one who] guards Mouth his [is] protecting life his [one who] opens lips his ruin [belongs] to him.
4 Every slothful man desires, but the hands of the active are diligent.
[is] coveting And nothing appetite his a sluggard and [the] appetite of diligent [people] it will be made fat.
5 A righteous man hates an unjust word: but an ungodly man is ashamed, and will have no confidence.
A word of falsehood he hates a righteous [person] and a wicked [person] he acts odiously and he may act shamefully.
6
Righteousness it preserves integrity of way and wickedness it subverts sin.
7 There are [some] who, having nothing, enrich themselves: and there are [some] who bring themselves down in [the midst of] much wealth.
There [is one who] enriches himself and there not [is] anything [one who] impoverishes himself and wealth great.
8 A man's own wealth is the ransom of his life: but the poor endures not threatening.
[the] ransom of [the] life of A person [is] wealth his and a poor [person] not he hears a threat.
9 The righteous always have light: but the light of the ungodly is quenched. Crafty souls go astray in sins: but just men pity, and are merciful.
[the] light of Righteous [people] it rejoices and [the] lamp of wicked [people] it is extinguished.
10 A bad man does evil with insolence: but they that are judges of themselves are wise.
Only with pride it gives contention and [is] with [those who] receive advice wisdom.
11 Wealth gotten hastily with iniquity is diminished: but he that gathers for himself with godliness shall be increased. The righteous is merciful, and lends.
Wealth from vanity it will become small and [one who] gathers on hand he will increase.
12 Better is he that begins to help heartily, than he that promises and leads [another] to hope: for a good desire is a tree of life.
Hope deferred [is] making sick [the] heart and [is] a tree of life a desire [which] comes.
13 He that slights a matter shall be slighted of it: but he that fears the commandment has health [of soul]. To a crafty son there shall be nothing good: but a wise servant shall have prosperous doings, and his way shall be directed aright.
[one who] despises A word he will be pledged to it and [one] fearing a commandment he he will be rewarded.
14 The law of the wise is fountain of life: but the man void of understanding shall die by a snare.
[the] instruction of A wise [person] [is] a fountain of life to turn aside from [the] snares of death.
15 Sound discretion gives favour, and to know the law is the part of a sound understanding: but the ways of scorners tend to destruction.
Insight good it gives favor and [the] way of treacherous [people] [is] enduring.
16 Every prudent man acts with knowledge: but the fool displays his own mischief.
Every sensible [person] he acts with knowledge and a fool he spreads out foolishness.
17 A rash king shall fall into mischief: but a wise messenger shall deliver him.
A messenger wicked he falls in trouble and an envoy of faithfulness [is] healing.
18 Instruction removes poverty and disgrace: but he that attends to reproofs shall be honoured.
Poverty and shame [one who] ignores discipline and [one who] keeps correction he is honored.
19 The desires of the godly gladden the soul, but the works of the ungodly are far from knowledge.
A desire done (is pleasing *LAH(b)*) to a person and [is] an abomination of fools to turn aside from evil.
20 If thou walkest with wise men thou shalt be wise: but he that walks with fools shall be known.
([one who] walks *Q(K)*) With wise [people] (he will become wise *Q(K)*) and [one who] associates with fools he will be harmed.
21 Evil shall pursue sinners; but good shall overtake the righteous.
Sinners it pursues calamity and righteous [people] it rewards good.
22 A good man shall inherit children's children; and the wealth of ungodly men is laid up for the just.
A good [person] he leaves an inheritance to children of children and [is] stored up for the righteous [the] wealth of a sinner.
23 The righteous shall spend many years in wealth: but the unrighteous shall perish suddenly.
Abundance of food [the] unplowed ground of poor [people] and there [is what] is swept away in not justice.
24 He that spares the rod hates his son: but he that loves, carefully chastens [him].
[one who] restrains Rod his [is] hating son his and [one who] loves him he seeks early him discipline.
25 A just [man] eats and satisfies his soul: but the souls of the ungodly are in want.
A righteous [person] [is] eating to [the] satiety of appetite his and [the] belly of wicked [people] it is lacking.
