Proverbs 13:16-18
Lexham English Bible

16 Anyone who is clever will act with intelligence,
    but the fool will display folly.
17 A messenger of wickedness will fall into trouble,
    but an envoy of the faithful brings healing.
18 Poverty and disgrace belong to him who ignores instruction,
    but he who guards reproof will be honored.
