Proverbs 15:31-33

EasyEnglish Bible

³¹ If anyone accepts teaching that helps him to live in a good way,
    he becomes a friend of wise people.
³² If you refuse to accept it when people warn you,
    you are hurting yourself.
But if you agree to listen,
    you will learn to do what is right.
³³ If you respect and obey the Lord,
    that will teach you wisdom.
If you want to receive honour,
    first learn to be humble.
