    (B)but whoever (C)heeds reproof is honored.
19 (D)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 (E)Disaster[a] pursues sinners,
    (F)but the righteous are rewarded with good.
