Proverbs 18:13-15
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
13 If one gives answer before hearing,

14 The human spirit will endure sickness;
but a broken spirit—who can bear?
15 An intelligent mind acquires knowledge,
and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.

15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
