¹⁵ The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
    but a wise man listens to advice.

²⁰ Listen to advice and accept instruction,
    that you may gain wisdom in the future.

¹⁶ One who is wise is cautious^[a] and turns away from evil,
    but a fool is reckless and careless.

⁵ Let the wise hear and increase in learning,
    and the one who understands obtain guidance,

²⁰ Wisdom cries aloud in the street,
    in the markets she raises her voice;
²¹ at the head of the noisy streets she cries out;
    at the entrance of the city gates she speaks:
²² “How long, O simple ones, will you love being simple?
How long will scoffers delight in their scoffing
    and fools hate knowledge?
²³ If you turn at my reproof,^[a]
behold, I will pour out my spirit to you;
    I will make my words known to you.
