Proverbs 13:18-20

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁸ Poverty and disgrace are for the one who ignores instruction,
    but one who heeds reproof is honored.
¹⁹ A desire realized is sweet to the soul,
    but to turn away from evil is an abomination to fools.
²⁰ Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise,
    but the companion of fools suffers harm.
