Sirach 32:18

18 A well-advised person won't overlook an intelligent thought; the stranger and the arrogant won't cower out of fear.

Sirach 32:18 In-Context

16 Those who fear the Lord will discover his decree, and they will kindle righteous deeds like a lamp.
17 Sinful people turn away from correction; they will look for a judgment that suits them.
18 A well-advised person won't overlook an intelligent thought; the stranger and the arrogant won't cower out of fear.
19 Do nothing without deliberation, and when you have acted, don't feel regret.
20 Don't walk on a hazardous path, and don't stumble on stony ground.
