Proverbs 13:17-19

Lexham English Bible

¹⁷ A messenger of wickedness will fall into trouble,
    but an envoy of the faithful brings healing.
¹⁸ Poverty and disgrace belong to him who ignores instruction,
    but he who guards reproof will be honored.
¹⁹ A desire fulfilled^[a] will be sweet to the soul,
    but an abomination of fools is turning from evil.
