Proverbs 13:2-8

²By the fruit of a man's mouth he shall eat good; But the appetite of transgressors shall be sated with violence.

³He who keepeth his mouth keepeth his life; But destruction shall be to him who openeth wide his lips.

⁴The appetite of the sluggard longeth, and hath nothing; But the appetite of the diligent is fully satisfied.

⁵A righteous man hateth words of falsehood; But a wicked man causeth disgrace and shame.

⁶Righteousness preserveth him who is upright in his way; But wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

⁷There is who maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing, Who maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.

⁸A man's wealth is the ransom of his life; But the poor man heareth no threatenings.
