The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall.
The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent.
The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise.
He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding.
