Godliness guards the path of the blameless,
but the evil are misled by sin.
The life of the godly is full of light and joy,
but the light of the wicked will be snuffed out.
Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life.
It is pleasant to see dreams come true,
but fools refuse to turn from evil to attain them.
Walk with the wise and become wise;
associate with fools and get in trouble.
Those who spare the rod of discipline hate their children.
Those who love their children care enough to discipline them.
-Proverbs 13:6,9,12,19-20, & 24
