Proverbs 10

^{Proverbs 10
8} The wise in heart accept commands,
   but a chattering fool comes to ruin.
²¹ The lips of the righteous nourish many,
   but fools die for lack of sense.

These verses mean that wise people listen while foolish people whine. Righteous people speak good things to others and refresh them while foolish people who lack common sense say strange things and get embarrassed. For example, Abraham accepted the command of God to kill his son and got a reward. On the other hand, people who chatted foolish things when Noah was building the ark died when the great flood killed them.

Action Steps:
1: listen to people in authority and respect them.
2: say good things others and encourage them.
