Proverbs 13:1-3

Christian Standard Bible

13 A wise son responds to his father’s discipline,
but a mocker doesn’t listen to rebuke.

² From the fruit of his mouth,
a person will enjoy good things,^(A)
but treacherous people have an appetite for violence.^(B)

³ The one who guards his mouth protects his life;^(C)
the one who opens his lips invites his own ruin.^(D)
