Proverbs 15:12-14

Contemporary English Version

¹² Those who sneer at others
    don't like to be corrected,
and they won't ask help
    from someone with sense.
¹³ Happiness makes you smile;
    sorrow can crush you.
¹⁴ Anyone with good sense
    is eager to learn more,
but fools are hungry
    for foolishness.
