Proverbs 13:17-19

Authorized (King James) Version

¹⁷ A wicked messenger falleth into mischief:
    but a faithful ambassador is health.

¹⁸ Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction:
    but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.

¹⁹ The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul:
    but it is abomination to fools to depart from evil.
