Proverbs 13:17-19
New Catholic Bible

17 An unreliable messenger engenders trouble,
    but a trustworthy envoy brings healing.
18 Poverty and disgrace befall one who ignores discipline,
    but one who takes correction is honored.
19 A desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul,
    while fools regard turning from evil as an abomination.
