1A wise son his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

2A man shall eat good by the fruit of mouth: but the soul of the transgressors violence.

3He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

4The soul of the sluggard desireth, and nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

5A righteous hateth lying: but a wicked is loathsome, and cometh to shame.
