Proverbs 13:1-3
New American Standard Bible 1995

Contrast the Upright and the Wicked

13 A (A)wise son accepts his father’s discipline,
But a (B)scoffer does not listen to rebuke.
2 From the fruit of a man’s mouth he [a](C)enjoys good,
But the [b]desire of the treacherous is (D)violence.
3 The one who (E)guards his mouth preserves his life;
The one who (F)opens wide his lips [c]comes to ruin.
