Proverbs 14:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ A truthful witness does not lie,
but a false witness tells nothing but lies.

⁶ ·Those who make fun of wisdom look for it [Mockers seek wisdom] and do not find it,
but knowledge comes ·easily [or quickly] to those with understanding.

⁷ Stay away from fools,
because they ·can’t teach you anything [^Ldon’t have knowledgeable lips].
