Proverbs 13

Proverbs 13:11


13:11 Dishonest money [wealth obtained by fraud (or through gambling)] dwindles away, but he who gathers money little by little [by honest labor] makes it grow.

Proverbs 13:20
Walk [live in close association; travel the path of life alongside] with the wise [those who fear the Lord and live according to His instruction] and become wise [wisdom is cultivated and absorbed through proximity and influence], for a companion [one who closely associates with; keeps company with] of fools [those who reject correction and disregard God’s wisdom] suffers harm [is eventually damaged, ruined, or brought to trouble by the consequences of foolish influence].

Proverbs 13:24
13:24 [this is not a license to harm a child] He who spares the rod [corporal punishment is a legitimate part of parental discipline and an expression of love] hates his son, but he who loves him is careful to discipline him.
