¹⁵ The ^(A)way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
But a wise man is he who listens to counsel.
¹⁶ A ^(B)fool’s anger is known at once,
But a prudent man conceals dishonor.

¹⁴ The ^[a]teaching of the wise is a ^(A)fountain of life,
To turn aside from the ^(B)snares of death.

¹⁶ Every ^(A)prudent man acts with knowledge,
But a fool ^[a]displays folly.

¹⁹ Desire realized is sweet to the soul,
But it is an abomination to fools to turn away from evil.

⁹ Fools mock at ^[a]sin,
But ^(A)among the upright there is ^[b]good will.

¹⁶ A wise man ^[a]is cautious and ^(A)turns away from evil,
But a fool is arrogant and careless.
¹⁷ A quick-tempered man acts foolishly,
And a man of evil devices is hated.

²⁴ The ^(A)crown of the wise is their riches,
But the folly of fools is foolishness.
