Proverbs 13:17-19

New Living Translation

¹⁷ An unreliable messenger stumbles into trouble,
    but a reliable messenger brings healing.

¹⁸ If you ignore criticism, you will end in poverty and disgrace;
    if you accept correction, you will be honored.

¹⁹ It is pleasant to see dreams come true,
    but fools refuse to turn from evil to attain them.
