Proverbs 22:10

10 Cast out a pestilent person from the council, and strife shall go out with him; for when he sits in the council he dishonours all.

Proverbs 22:17-21

17 Incline thine ear to the words of wise men: hear also my word, and apply thine heart,

18 that thou mayest know that they are good: and if thou lay them to heart, they shall also gladden thee on thy lips.

19 That thy hope may be in the Lord, and he may make thy way known to thee.

20 And do thou too repeatedly record them for thyself on the table of thine heart, for counsel and knowledge.

21 I therefore teach thee truth, and knowledge good to hear; that thou mayest answer words of truth to them that question thee.
