Proverbs 13:7-12 The Message (MSG)

7. A pretentious, showy life is an empty life;a plain and simple life is a full life.

8. The rich can be sued for everything they have,but the poor are free of such threats.

9. The lives of good people are brightly lit streets;the lives of the wicked are dark alleys.

10. Arrogant know-it-alls stir up discord,but wise men and women listen to each other’s counsel.

11. Easy come, easy go,but steady diligence pays off.

12. Unrelenting disappointment leaves you heartsick,but a sudden good break can turn life around.
