Berean Standard Bible

The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to counsel.

Context

13An evil man is trapped by his rebellious speech, but a righteous man escapes from trouble. 14By fruitful speech a man is filled with good things, and the work of his hands returns to him. 15The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to counsel. 16A fool’s anger is known at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult. 17He who speaks the truth declares what is right, but a false witness speaks deceit.
