Proverbs 13:1-5 God's Word Translation (GW)

1. A wise son listens to his father’s discipline,but a mocker does not listen to reprimands.

2. A person eats well as a result of his speaking ability,but the appetite of treacherous people ⌊craves⌋ violence.

3. Whoever controls his mouth protects his own life.Whoever has a big mouth comes to ruin.

4. A lazy person craves food and there is none,but the appetite of hard-working people is satisfied.

5. A righteous person hates lying,but a wicked person behaves with shame and disgrace.
