Proverbs 15:22-25

²²They that honor not councils put off deliberation; but counsel abides in the hearts of counselors.

²³A bad man will by no means attend to counsel; neither will he say anything seasonable, or good for the common weal.

²⁴The thoughts of the wise are ways of life, that he may turn aside and escape from hell.

²⁵The Lord pulls down the houses of scorners; but he establishes the border of the widow.
