29 aThe
Lord is far from the wicked,
But
bHe hears the prayer of the righteous.
30 The light of the eyes rejoices the heart,
And a good report makes the bones
1 healthy.
31 The ear that hears the rebukes of life
Will abide among the wise.
32 He who disdains instruction despises his own soul,
But he who heeds rebuke gets understanding.
33 aThe fear of the
Lord is the instruction of wisdom,
And
bbefore honor
is humility.
