Proverbs 14:7


Proverbs 14:6 Proverbs 14:7 (KJV) Proverbs 14:8
A scorner seeketh wisdom, and [findeth it] not: but knowledge [is] easy unto him that understandeth.
Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not [in him] the lips of knowledge.
The wisdom of the prudent [is] to understand his way: but the folly of fools [is] deceit.
