Proverbs 13:25

 1 A wise son hears his father's instruction, but  a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.  2 From the fruit of his mouth a man  eats what is good, but the desire of the treacherous  is for violence.  3  Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life;  he who opens wide his lips  comes to ruin.  4  The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent  is richly supplied.  5 The righteous hates falsehood, but the wicked brings shame  and disgrace.  6  Righteousness guards him whose  way is blameless, but sin overthrows the wicked.  7  One pretends to be rich,  yet has nothing;  another pretends to be poor,  yet has great wealth.  8 The ransom of a man's life is his wealth, but a poor man  hears no threat.  9  The light of the righteous rejoices, but  the lamp of the wicked will be put out.  10  By insolence comes nothing but strife, but with those who take advice is wisdom.  11  Wealth gained hastily  will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it.  12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick,  but a desire fulfilled is  a tree of life.  13 Whoever  despises  the word  brings destruction on himself, but he who reveres the commandment  will be  rewarded.  14 The teaching of the wise is  a fountain of life, that one may  turn away from the snares of death.  15  Good sense wins  favor, but the way of the treacherous is their ruin.   16  Every prudent man acts with knowledge,  but a fool flaunts his folly.  17 A wicked messenger falls into trouble, but  a faithful envoy brings healing.  18 Poverty and disgrace come to him who  ignores instruction,  but whoever  heeds reproof is honored.  19  A desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul, but to turn away from evil is an abomination to fools.  20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.  21  Disaster  pursues sinners,  but the righteous are rewarded with good.  22  A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children, but  the sinner's wealth is laid up for the righteous.  23 The fallow ground of the poor would yield much food, but it is swept away through  injustice.  24  Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.   25  The righteous has enough to satisfy his appetite, but the belly of the wicked suffers want.

From Wikipedia: 

The English Standard Version (ESV) is an English translation of the Bible. The ESV was published in 2001 by Crossway, having been "created by a team of more than 100 leading evangelical scholars and pastors." The ESV relies on recently published critical editions of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. Crossway claim that the ESV continues a legacy begun by the Tyndale New Testament of precision and faithfulness in English translation of the original text, followed in the same standard by "the King James Version of 1611 (KJV), the English Revised Version of 1885 (RV), the American Standard Version of 1901 (ASV), and the Revised Standard Version of 1952 and 1971." Crossway describes the ESV as a translation that "emphasizes 'word-for-word' accuracy, literary excellence, and depth of meaning." Crossway also describes the ESV as a translation that adheres to an "essentially literal" translation philosophy, taking into account "differences in grammar, syntax, and idiom between current literary English and the original languages."

The ESV is derived from the 1971 text edition of the Revised Standard Version (RSV). ESV Translation Oversight Committee member Wayne Grudem claims that approximately eight percent (or about 60,000 words) of the 1971 RSV text being used for the ESV was revised as of first publication in 2001. Grudem states that the committee removed "every trace of liberal influence that had caused such criticism from evangelicals when the RSV was first published in 1952." Although, Grudem also states that much of the 1971 RSV text left unchanged by the committee "is simply 'the best of the best' of the KJV tradition."

With regard to gender language, the ESV Translation Oversight Committee state that "the goal of the ESV is to render literally what is in the original."[9] The committee expands on this position in claiming that, although the ESV avoids using gender-neutral language (for the purpose of preserving contextual meaning found in the original text), the translation does utilize gender-neutral language in specific cases. The committee further state that their objective was "transparency to the original text, allowing the reader to understand the original on its own terms rather than in the terms of our present-day Western culture."[9] The ESV Study Bible often details in its commentary why a complementarian interpretation of the original text may have been rendered in translation.
