Proverbs 20:1-10, Proverbs 20:13

Proverbs 20:1-10

20 Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler,
    and whoever is led astray by it is not wise.^[a]
2 The terror of a king is like the growling of a lion;
    whoever provokes him to anger forfeits his life.
³ It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife,
    but every fool will be quarreling.
⁴ The sluggard does not plow in the autumn;
    he will seek at harvest and have nothing.
⁵ The purpose in a man’s heart is like deep water,
    but a man of understanding will draw it out.
⁶ Many a man proclaims his own steadfast love,
    but a faithful man who can find?
⁷ The righteous who walks in his integrity (entireness, wholeness, unbroken state) —
    blessed are his children after him!
⁸ A king who sits on the throne of judgment
    winnows all evil with his eyes.
⁹ Who can say, “I have made my heart pure;
    I am clean from my sin”?
¹⁰ Unequal^[b] weights and unequal measures
    are both alike an abomination to the Lord.

Proverbs 20:13

¹¹ Love not sleep, lest you come to poverty;
    open your eyes, and you will have plenty of bread.

Proverbs 20:1-10, Proverbs 20:13
