Proverbs 18:13 (Listen)

13 If one gives an answer obefore he hears,

it is his folly and shame.

2 Desire1 without knowledge is not good,

and whoever cmakes haste with his feet misses his way.

[1] 19:2 Or A soul

5 The plans of ethe diligent lead surely to abundance,

but everyone who is fhasty comes gonly to poverty.

8 wdo not hastily bring into court,

for1 what will you do in the end,

when your neighbor puts you to shame?

[1] 25:8 Hebrew or else

20 A faithful man will abound with blessings,

but whoever hastens to be rich jwill not go unpunished.

22 A mstingy man1 nhastens after wealth

and does not know that opoverty will come upon him.

[1] 28:22 Hebrew A man whose eye is evil

20 Do you see a man who is hasty in his words?

cThere is more hope for a fool than for him.
