8 The (A)wise of heart will receive commands,But [a]a babbling fool will come to ruin.
8 The skilled mind accepts commands, but a foolish talker is ruined.
23 Doing wickedness is like (A)sport to a fool,And so is wisdom to a person of understanding.
23 Fools enjoy vile deeds, but those with understanding take pleasure in wisdom.
