Proverbs 13:18-20
New Catholic Bible

18 Poverty and disgrace befall one who ignores discipline,
    but one who takes correction is honored.
19 A desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul,
    while fools regard turning from evil as an abomination.
20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise,
    but he who mingles with fools will suffer harm.[a]
