18  Poverty and ^odisgrace come to him who ^pignores instruction,

but whoever ^qheeds reproof is honored.

5  A fool ^edespises his father’s ^finstruction,

but whoever ^gheeds reproof is prudent.

31  The ear that listens to life-giving reproof

will dwell among the wise.

32  Whoever ^dignores ^einstruction despises himself,

but he who listens to reproof ^fgains intelligence.
