Proverbs 21:9-11
Authorized (King James) Version
9 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop,
than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil:
his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes.
11 When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise:
and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.

by paying attention to the wise they get knowledge.(B)
