- A scoffer seeks wisdom and finds none, But knowledge is easy to one who has understanding.
- Leave the presence of a fool, Or you will not discern words of knowledge.
- The wisdom of the sensible is to understand his way, But the foolishness of fools is deceit.
- Fools mock at sin, But among the upright there is good will.
- The heart knows its own bitterness, And a stranger does not share its joy.
|
- The house of the wicked will be destroyed, But the tent of the upright will flourish.
- There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.
- Even in laughter the heart may be in pain, And the end of joy may be grief.
- The backslider in heart will have his fill of his own ways, But a good man will be satisfied with his.
- The naive believes everything, But the sensible man considers his steps.
