I discerned among the youths a young man void of understanding,

Proverbs 7:7

New International Version

⁷I saw among the simple,
I noticed among the young men,
a youth who had no sense.^(A)

²¹Folly is joy to one who is void of wisdom,
but a man of understanding keeps his way straight.

²¹Folly brings joy to one who has no sense,^(A)
but whoever has understanding keeps a straight course.

¹⁸A man void of understanding strikes hands,
and becomes collateral in the presence of his neighbor.

¹⁸One who has no sense shakes hands in pledge
and puts up security for a neighbor.^(A)
