⁵ that the wise man may hear, and increase in learning;
    that the man of understanding may attain to sound counsel:

¹⁵ The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
    but he who is wise listens to counsel.

¹⁰ Pride only breeds quarrels,
    but wisdom is with people who take advice.

¹³ Whoever despises instruction will pay for it,
    but he who respects a command will be rewarded.

⁴ An evildoer heeds wicked lips.
    A liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue.

¹⁰ A rebuke enters deeper into one who has understanding
    than a hundred lashes into a fool.

¹³ He who answers before he hears,
    that is folly and shame to him.

⁵ Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water,
    but a man of understanding will draw it out.
