Proverbs 13
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
13 A wise son heareth the doctrine of his father: but he that is a scorner, beareth not when he is reproved.
2 Of the fruit of his own mouth shall a man be filled with good things: but the soul of transgressors is wicked.
3 He that keepeth his mouth, keepeth his soul: but he that hath no guard on his speech shall meet with evils.
4 The sluggard willeth and willeth not: but the soul of them that work, shall be made fat.
5 The just shall hate a lying word: but the wicked confoundeth, and shall be confounded.
6 Justice keepeth the way of the innocent: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.
7 One is as it were rich, when he hath nothing: and another is as it were poor, when he hath great riches.
8 The ransom of a man's life are his riches: but he that is poor beareth not reprehension.
9 The light of the just giveth joy: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
10 Among the proud there are always contentions: but they that do all things with counsel, are ruled by wisdom.
11 Substance got in haste shall be diminished: but that which by little and little is gathered with the hand shall increase.
12 Hope that is deferred afflicteth the soul: desire when it cometh is a tree of life.
13 Whosoever speaketh ill of any thing, bindeth himself for the time to come: but he that feareth the commandment, shall dwell in peace. Deceitful souls go astray in sins: the just are merciful, and shew mercy.
14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life, that he may decline from the ruin of death.
15 Good instruction shall give grace: in the way of scorners is a deep pit.
16 The prudent man doth all things with counsel: but he that is a fool, layeth open his folly.
17 The messenger of the wicked shall fall into mischief: but a faithful ambassador is health.
18 Poverty and shame to him that refuseth instruction: but he that yieldeth to reproof, shall be glorified.
19 The desire that is accomplished, delighteth the soul: fools hate them that flee from evil things.
20 He that walketh with the wise, shall be wise: a friend of fools shall become like to them.
21 Evil pursueth sinners: and to the just good shall be repaid.
22 The good man leaveth heirs, sons, and grandsons: and the substance of the sinner is kept for the just.
23 Much food is in the tillage of fathers: but for others it is gathered with out judgment.
24 He that spareth the rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him correcteth him betimes.
25 The just eateth and filleth his soul: but the belly of the wicked is never to be filled.

Proverbios 13
Reina-Valera 1960
13 El hijo sabio recibe el consejo del padre;
Mas el burlador no escucha las reprensiones.
2 Del fruto de su boca el hombre comerá el bien;
Mas el alma de los prevaricadores hallará el mal.
3 El que guarda su boca guarda su alma;
Mas el que mucho abre sus labios tendrá calamidad.
4 El alma del perezoso desea, y nada alcanza;
Mas el alma de los diligentes será prosperada.
5 El justo aborrece la palabra de mentira;
Mas el impío se hace odioso e infame.
6 La justicia guarda al de perfecto camino;
Mas la impiedad trastornará al pecador.
7 Hay quienes pretenden ser ricos, y no tienen nada;
Y hay quienes pretenden ser pobres, y tienen muchas riquezas.
8 El rescate de la vida del hombre está en sus riquezas;
Pero el pobre no oye censuras.
9 La luz de los justos se alegrará;
Mas se apagará la lámpara de los impíos.
10 Ciertamente la soberbia concebirá contienda;
Mas con los avisados está la sabiduría.
11 Las riquezas de vanidad disminuirán;
Pero el que recoge con mano laboriosa las aumenta.
12 La esperanza que se demora es tormento del corazón;
Pero árbol de vida es el deseo cumplido.
13 El que menosprecia el precepto perecerá por ello;
Mas el que teme el mandamiento será recompensado.
14 La ley del sabio es manantial de vida
Para apartarse de los lazos de la muerte.
15 El buen entendimiento da gracia;
Mas el camino de los transgresores es duro.
16 Todo hombre prudente procede con sabiduría;
Mas el necio manifestará necedad.
17 El mal mensajero acarrea desgracia;
Mas el mensajero fiel acarrea salud.
18 Pobreza y vergüenza tendrá el que menosprecia el consejo;
Mas el que guarda la corrección recibirá honra.
19 El deseo cumplido regocija el alma;
Pero apartarse del mal es abominación a los necios.
20 El que anda con sabios, sabio será;
Mas el que se junta con necios será quebrantado.
21 El mal perseguirá a los pecadores,
Mas los justos serán premiados con el bien.
22 El bueno dejará herederos a los hijos de sus hijos;
Pero la riqueza del pecador está guardada para el justo.
23 En el barbecho de los pobres hay mucho pan;
Mas se pierde por falta de juicio.
24 El que detiene el castigo, a su hijo aborrece;
Mas el que lo ama, desde temprano lo corrige.
25 El justo come hasta saciar su alma;
Mas el vientre de los impíos tendrá necesidad.

New International Version
Proverbs 13
New International Version
13 A wise son heeds his father’s instruction,
but a mocker does not respond to rebukes.(A)
2 From the fruit of their lips people enjoy good things,(B)
but the unfaithful have an appetite for violence.
3 Those who guard their lips(C) preserve their lives,(D)
but those who speak rashly will come to ruin.(E)
4 A sluggard’s appetite is never filled,(F)
but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.
5 The righteous hate what is false,(G)
but the wicked make themselves a stench
and bring shame on themselves.
6 Righteousness guards the person of integrity,
but wickedness overthrows the sinner.(H)
7 One person pretends to be rich, yet has nothing;(I)
another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.(J)
8 A person’s riches may ransom their life,
but the poor cannot respond to threatening rebukes.(K)
9 The light of the righteous shines brightly,
but the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out.(L)
10 Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice.(M)
11 Dishonest money dwindles away,(N)
but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow.
12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.(O)
15 Good judgment wins favor,
but the way of the unfaithful leads to their destruction.[a]
18 Whoever disregards discipline comes to poverty and shame,(Y)
but whoever heeds correction is honored.(Z)
19 A longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul,(AA)
but fools detest turning from evil.
20 Walk with the wise and become wise,
for a companion of fools suffers harm.(AB)
22 A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children,
but a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous.(AF)
23 An unplowed field produces food for the poor,
but injustice sweeps it away.
24 Whoever spares the rod(AG) hates their children,
but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline(AH) them.(AI)
25 The righteous eat to their hearts’ content,
but the stomach of the wicked goes hungry.(AJ)
