Proverbs 19:20-25

²⁰Listen to advice and accept instruction so that you'll eventually become wise.

²¹Human beings make many plans in their minds, but the final decision is the Lord's.

²²The most desirable thing in anyone is trustworthy love; it is better to be poor than a liar.

²³Honoring the Lord is life, and you will rest contentedly, safe from harm.

²⁴Lazy people put their hands in a dish, and won't even lift the food to their mouths.

²⁵If you punish someone who mocks, you may help an immature person to learn. Correct the wise, and they become wiser.
