Proverbs 13:19-21
Amplified Bible

19 
Desire realized is sweet to the soul;
But it is detestable to fools to turn away from evil [which they have planned].
20 
He who walks [as a companion] with wise men will be wise,
But the companions of [conceited, dull-witted] fools [are fools themselves and] will experience harm.(A)
21 
Adversity pursues sinners,
But the [consistently] upright will be rewarded with prosperity.
