Proverbs 14:6-8

Young's Literal Translation

⁶A scorner hath sought wisdom, and it is not, And knowledge to the intelligent [is] easy.

⁷Go from before a foolish man, Or thou hast not known the lips of knowledge.

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

for you will not find knowledge on their lips.
