Proverbs 14:8

Compare all

6 A scoffer seeks wisdom and does not find it,
But ^aknowledge is easy to him who understands.

7 Go from the presence of a foolish man,
When you do not perceive in him the lips of ^aknowledge.

8 The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way,
But the folly of fools is deceit.

9 ^aFools mock at¹ sin,
But among the upright there is favor.

10 The heart knows its own bitterness,
And a stranger does not share its joy.

11 ^aThe house of the wicked will be overthrown,
But the tent of the upright will flourish.
