Proverbs 13:17-27 KJV
[17] A wicked messenger falleth into mischief:
but a faithful ambassador is health.
[18] Poverty and shame shall be to him that
refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth
reproof shall be honoured.
[19] The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul:
but it is abomination to fools to depart from evil.
[20] He that walketh with wise men shall be wise:
but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
[21] Evil pursueth sinners: but to the righteous
good shall be repayed.
[22] A good man leaveth an inheritance to his
children's children: and the wealth of the
sinner is laid up for the just.
[23] Much food is in the tillage of the poor:
but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment.
[24] He that spareth his rod hateth his son:
but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
[25] The righteous eateth to the satisfying
of his soul: but the belly of the wicked
shall want.
