Proverbs 13:8-10
The Message
8 The rich can be sued for everything they have,
but the poor are free of such threats.
9 The lives of good people are brightly lit streets;
the lives of the wicked are dark alleys.
10 Arrogant know-it-alls stir up discord,
but wise men and women listen to each other’s counsel.
Proverbs 13:8-10
New International Version

but the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out.(B)

but wisdom is found in those who take advice.(C)
