13:16 Every prudent [man] acteth with knowledge; but the foolish layeth open [his] folly.
13:17 A wicked messenger falleth into evil; but a faithful ambassador is health.
13:18 Poverty and shame shall be [to] him that refuseth instruction; but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.
13:19 The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul; but it is abomination to the foolish to depart from evil.
13:20 He that walketh with wise [men] becometh wise; but a companion of the foolish will be depraved.
13:21 Evil pursueth sinners; but to the righteous good shall be repaid.
13:22 A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children`s children; but the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the righteous [man].
13:23 Much food is in the tillage of the poor; but there is that is lost for want of judgment.
13:24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son; but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
