²³The prudent keep their knowledge to themselves,^(A)
but a fool’s heart blurts out folly.^(B)

²³^(A)A prudent man conceals knowledge,
But the heart of fools proclaims foolishness.

³Yea also, when he that is a fool walketh by the way, his wisdom faileth him, and he saith to every one that he is a fool.

they lack sense
and show everyone^(A) how stupid they are.

He lacks wisdom,
