Proverbs 14:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁶ A scoffer seeks wisdom yet finds none,
but knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.
⁷ Keep away from a foolish person,
since you will not learn anything from his lips.
⁸ The wisdom of a sensible^[a] person is that he understands his way,
but the stupidity of fools is deceptive.^[b]
