8 The (A)wise of heart will receive commandments,But an ignorant fool of loose lips will be [a]ruined.
8 The wise person[a] accepts commands, but the chattering fool will be brought down.
23 Doing wickedness is like (A)laughing to a fool,And so is wisdom to a man of discernment.
23 Just as the fool considers wickedness his joy, so is wisdom to the discerning man.
