Proverbs 14:4-6

International Standard Version

⁴ Where there are no oxen, the feeding trough is clean,
    but profits come through the strength of the ox.

⁵ A trustworthy witness does not deceive,
    but a false witness spews lies.

⁶ A mocker seeks wisdom and finds^[a] none,
    but learning comes easily to someone who understands.
