Proverbs 14:7-9
EasyEnglish Bible
7 Stay away from foolish people.
They will stop you from learning anything that is wise.
8 A careful person understands what is right and he does it.
But a foolish person's silly thoughts deceive him.
9 Fools think that they do not need to do anything about their sins.
But God is pleased with people who do what is right.
Proverbs 14:7-9

for you will not find knowledge on their lips.
8 The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways,(A)
but the folly of fools is deception.(B)
9 Fools mock at making amends for sin,
but goodwill is found among the upright.
