Proverbs 13:14-16

New American Standard Bible

¹⁴ The ^[a]teaching of the wise is a ^(A)fountain of life,
To turn aside from the ^(B)snares of death.
^15 (C)Good understanding produces favor,
But the way of the treacherous is ^[b]their own disaster.
¹⁶ Every ^(D)prudent person acts with knowledge,
But a fool ^[c]displays foolishness.
