Proverbs 13:1-3

New Life Version

13 A wise son listens when his father tells him the right way, but one who laughs at the truth does not listen when strong words are spoken to him.

² The one who is careful what he says will have good come to him, but the one who wants to hurt others will have trouble.

³ He who watches over his mouth keeps his life. He who opens his lips wide will be destroyed.
