Proverbs 18:13-15
New American Standard Bible

13 One who (A)gives an answer before he hears,
It is foolishness and shame to him.
14 The (B)spirit of a person can endure his sickness,
But as for a (C)broken spirit, who can endure it?
15 The [a](D)mind of the discerning acquires knowledge,
And the (E)ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
