Proverbs 22:15-17

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁵ Folly is bound up in the heart of a youth, The rod of chastisement putteth it far from him.

¹⁶ He is oppressing the poor to multiply to him, He is giving to the rich -- only to want.

¹⁷ Incline thine ear, and hear words of the wise, And thy heart set to my knowledge,
