6 A scoffer seeks wisdom, and doesn`t find it, But knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.
7 Stay away from a foolish man, For you won`t find knowledge on his lips.
8 The wisdom of the prudent is to think about his way, But the folly of fools is deceit.
9 Fools mock at making atonement for sins, But among the upright there is good will.
10 The heart knows its own bitterness and joy; He will not share these with a stranger.
11 The house of the wicked will be overthrown, But the tent of the upright will flourish.
12 There is a way which seems right to a man, But in the end it leads to death.
