8 A wise heart accepts commands,(A)but foolish lips will be destroyed.
8 The wise person[a] accepts commands, but the chattering fool will be brought down.
23 As shameful conduct is pleasure for a fool,(A)so wisdom is for a man of understanding.
23 Just as the fool considers wickedness his joy, so is wisdom to the discerning man.
