7 And I saw among the (A)simple,And discerned among the [a]sonsA young man (B)lacking a heart of wisdom,
7 and I have seen among (A)the simple, I have perceived among the youths, a young man (B)lacking sense,
21 Folly is gladness to him who lacks a heart of wisdom,But a man of discernment (A)walks straight.
21 (A)Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense, but a man of understanding (B)walks straight ahead.
18 A man lacking a heart of wisdom (A)strikes his [a]hands in pledgeAnd becomes guarantor in the presence of his neighbor.
18 One who lacks sense gives a pledge and puts up security in the presence of his neighbor.
