The wisdom of the prudent [is] to understand his way: but the folly of fools [is] deceit.
Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous [there is] favour.
The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy.
The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish.
There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof [are] the ways of death.
Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth [is] heaviness.
The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man [shall be satisfied] from himself.
The simple believeth every word: but the prudent [man] looketh well to his going.
A wise [man] feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident.
[He that is] soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated.
