Proverbs 13:10-15

¹⁰A bad man does evil with insolence: But they that are judges of themselves are wise.

¹¹Wealth gotten hastily with iniquity is diminished: But he that gathers for himself with godliness shall be increased. The righteous is merciful, and lends.

¹²Better 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.

¹³He that slights a matter shall be slighted of it: But he that fears the commandment has health of soul.

^13aTo a crafty son there shall be nothing good: But a wise servant shall have prosperous doings, And his way shall be directed aright.

¹⁴The law of the wise is a fountain of life: But the man void of understanding shall die by a snare.

¹⁵Sound discretion gives favor, And to know the law is the part of a sound understanding: But the ways of scorners tend to destruction.
