Proverbs 22:3-5

The Voice

³ Prudent people see trouble coming and hide,
    but the naive walk right into it and take a beating.
⁴ A humble person who fears the Eternal
    can expect to receive wealth, honor, and life.
⁵ Thorny branches and traps lie ahead for those who follow perverse paths;
    those who want to preserve themselves will steer clear of them.
