5A truthful witness will not lie, but a false witness pours out lies.
6A scoffer seeks wisdom, and does not find it, but knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.
7Stay away from a foolish man, for you won’t find knowledge on his lips.
8The wisdom of the prudent is to think about his way, but the folly of fools is deceit.
9Fools mock at making atonement for sins, but among the upright there is good will.
