Ben Sira 3:26-29

26 Stubbornness will get you into trouble at the end. If you live dangerously, it will kill you.

27 A stubborn person will be burdened down with troubles. Sinners go on adding one sin to another.

28 There is no cure for the troubles that arrogant people have; wickedness has taken deep root in them.

29 Intelligent people will learn from proverbs and parables. They listen well because they want to learn.
