Context of Proverbs 13:5
3One who guards his mouth protects his life; One who opens wide his lips comes to ruin. 4The soul of the lazy one craves and gets nothing, But the soul of the diligent is made prosperous. A righteous person hates a false statement, But a wicked person acts disgustingly and shamefully. 6Righteousness guards the one whose way is blameless, But wickedness brings the sinner to ruin. 7There is one who pretends to be rich but has nothing; Another pretends to be poor, but has great wealth.
