Proverbs 13:3-5

Jubilee Bible 2000

³ ¶ He that keeps his mouth keeps his life: but he that opens his lips often shall have calamity.

⁴ ¶ The soul of the sluggard desires, and attains nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

⁵ ¶ The righteous man hates lying: but the wicked man makes himself loathsome, and abominable.
