Proverbs 14:7-9

Modern English Version

⁷ Go from the presence of a foolish man,
    when you do not perceive in him the lips of knowledge.

⁸ The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way,
    but the folly of fools is deceit.

⁹ Fools make a mock at sin,
    but among the righteous there is favor.
