6 (A)A scoffer seeks wisdom (B)in vain, but (C)knowledge is easy for a man of understanding.
10 A rebuke cuts into a perceptive personmore than a hundred lashes into a fool.

24 Wisdom is the focus of the perceptive,but a fool’s eyes(A) roam to the ends of the earth.
24 (A)The discerning sets his face toward wisdom, but the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth.
