12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when longing is fulfilled, it is a tree of life.
13 Whoever despises instruction will pay for it, But he who respects a command will be rewarded.
14 The teaching of the wise is a spring of life, To turn from the snares of death.
15 Good understanding wins favor; But the way of the unfaithful is hard.
16 Every prudent man acts from knowledge, But a fool exposes folly.
