Proverbs 14:4-8

⁴If a man has no oxen to plow his field, he does not need to put grain in their feedbox, but if he has oxen, they will enable him to produce an abundant crop.

⁵Witnesses who are reliable always say what ◄is true/really happened►, but witnesses who are not reliable constantly tell lies about what happened.

⁶Those who make fun of being wise will never become wise, but those who understand what is right learn things easily.

⁷Stay away from foolish people, because they will not be able to teach you anything useful.

⁸Those who have good sense are wise, so they know what they should do and what they should not do; foolish people do not know what is right to do, but because they think that they do, they are deceiving themselves.
