6A scorner seeketh wisdom, and there is none for him; but knowledge is easy unto the intelligent.
7Go from the presence of a foolish man, in whom thou perceivest not the lips of knowledge.
8The wisdom of the prudent is to discern his way; but the folly of the foolish is deceit.
9Fools make a mock at trespass; but for the upright there is favour.
10The heart knoweth its own bitterness, and a stranger doth not intermeddle with its joy.
