Proverbs 22:13-16 American Standard Version (ASV)

13. The sluggard saith, There is a lion without: I shall be slain in the streets.

14. The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: He that is abhorred of Jehovah shall fall therein.

15. Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; But the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.

16. He that oppresseth the poor to increase his gain, And he that giveth to the rich, shall come only to want.
