Proverbs 13:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹The lights of godly people shine brightly.
But the lamps of sinners are blown out.

¹⁰Where there is arguing, there is pride.
But those who take advice are wise.

¹¹Money gained in the wrong way disappears.
But money gathered little by little grows.
