Proverbs 14:6-8

World English Bible

⁶ A scoffer seeks wisdom, and doesn’t find it,
    but knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.
⁷ Stay away from a foolish man,
    for you won’t find knowledge on his lips.
⁸ The wisdom of the prudent is to think about his way,
    but the folly of fools is deceit.
