Proverbs 13

CHAPTER 13 Good Instructions

1 [²son ¹An astute] is subject to his father; [³son ¹but ²an unhearing] goes unto destruction. 2 From fruits of righteousness [²shall eat ¹the good]; but the lives of lawbreakers will be destroyed unseasonably. 3 The one who guards his own mouth gives heed to his own soul; but the one with precipitous lips shall terrify himself. 4 [⁴with ⁵desire ³is ¹Every ²idle man]; but the hands of the vigorous are caring. 5 [⁴word ³an unjust ²detest ¹The just]; but the impious man is ashamed, and shall not have an open manner. 6 Righteousness guards the guileless in the way; but the [²impious ones ¹vile] produce sin. 7 There are the ones enriching themselves, [²nothing ¹having]; and there are the ones abasing themselves with many riches. 8 [⁴is the ransom ¹A man's ⁵of his life ²own ³riches]; but the poor does not stand at intimidation. 9 Light to the just is always; light for the impious is extinguished. 10 An evil man [³with ⁴insult ¹practices ²evil]; but the [³themselves ²are arbitrating ¹wise]. 11 Substance being hastily obtained with lawlessness [²less ¹becomes]; but the one gathering for himself with piety shall be multiplied. The just pities and lends. 12 Better is the one commencing help in heart, than the one promising, and [²to ³hope ¹leads another]; [⁴is a tree ¹for ⁵of life ³desire ²a good]. 13 The one who disdains a matter, shall be disdained by it; but the one fearing a commandment, this one is in health. [²son ¹To a deceitful] nothing will be good; [³servant ¹but ²a wise ⁵prosperous ⁴will be] in actions, and [²shall prosper ¹his way]. 14 The law for the wise is a spring of life; but the mindless man [²by ³a snare ¹shall die]. 15 [²understanding ¹Good] gives favor; but to know the law [³consideration ¹is ²of good]; but the ways of the disdaining end in destruction. 16 Every astute man acts with knowledge; but the fool spreads forth [²for himself ¹evil]. 17 [²king ¹A rash] falls into evils; [³messenger ¹but ²a wise] shall rescue him. 18 Poverty and dishonor are removed by instruction; and the one guarding reproofs shall be extolled. 19 The desires of the impious delight the soul; but the works of the impious are far from knowledge. 20 The one going with wise men, will be wise; but the one going with fools shall be known. 21 [³ones sinning ²shall pursue ¹Evils]; but [³the just ²shall overtake ¹good things]. 22 A good man shall inherit sons of sons; [⁴are treasured up ¹and ⁵for the just ²the riches ³of the impious]. 23 The just shall spend [³in ⁴wealth ²years ¹many]; but the unjust shall perish suddenly. 24 The one who spares the staff detests his son; but the one loving carefully corrects. 25 The just in eating fills up his soul; but souls of the impious go lacking.
