Proverbs 13:1-7

New King James Version

^2 (B)A man shall eat well by the fruit of his mouth,
But the soul of the unfaithful feeds on violence.
^3 (C)He who guards his mouth preserves his life,
But he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction.

^4 (D)The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing;
But the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.

⁵ A righteous man hates lying,
But a wicked man is loathsome and comes to shame.
^6 (E)Righteousness guards him whose way is blameless,
But wickedness overthrows the sinner.

^7 (F)There is one who makes himself rich, yet has nothing;
And one who makes himself poor, yet has great riches.
