Proverbs 13:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁸ Anyone who turns away from good teaching will become poor and ashamed.
    But if you accept advice when you do something wrong, people will respect you.
¹⁹ It is very nice to receive the things that you want.
    But foolish people refuse to stop doing evil things.
²⁰ If you have wise people as your friends, you will become wise yourself.
    But if you have foolish friends, you will hurt yourself.
