Proverbs 13:13-15

Common English Bible

¹³ Trouble will come on those who despise a word,
    but those who respect the commandment will be rewarded.
¹⁴ The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life,
    turning a person away from deathtraps.
¹⁵ Good insight brings favor,
    but the way of the faithless is their ruin.^[a]
