Proverbs 15:20-23

20A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish man despises his mother.

21Foolishness is joy to him who is without heart and lacks [intelligent, common] sense, But a man of understanding walks uprightly [making his course straight].

22Without consultation and wise advice, plans are frustrated, But with many counselors they are established and succeed.

23A man has joy in giving an appropriate answer, And how good and delightful is a word spoken at the right moment—how good it is!
