14The teaching of the wise is a spring of life, to turn from the snares of death. 15Good understanding wins favor, but the way of the unfaithful is hard.
16Every prudent man acts from knowledge, but a fool exposes folly.
After · Proverbs 13:17–18
17A wicked messenger falls into trouble, but a trustworthy envoy gains healing. 18Poverty and shame come to him who refuses discipline, but he who heeds correction shall be honored.
