    but a rod is for the back of one who lacks sense.^[a]

³³ In the heart^[a] of him who has understanding, wisdom rests,
    but even in the midst of fools it becomes known.

    but the faces of fools, they^[a] will feed on folly.

²⁴ The path of life leads upward for him who has insight,
    in order to turn away from Sheol below.
