Proverbs 22:13-15

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹³ The ^(A)sluggard says, “There is a lion outside;
I will be killed in the streets!”
¹⁴ The mouth of ^[a](B)an adulteress is a deep pit;
He who is ^(C)cursed of the Lord will fall ^[b]into it.
¹⁵ Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child;
The ^(D)rod of discipline will remove it far from him.
