Proverbs 15:5-7

New Living Translation

⁵Only a fool despises a parent’s^[a] discipline;
whoever learns from correction is wise.

⁶There is treasure in the house of the godly,
but the earnings of the wicked bring trouble.

⁷The lips of the wise give good advice;
the heart of a fool has none to give.
