The Wise and the Foolish Differ

12
He can never be taught who is not shrewd, but one form of shrewdness is thoroughly bitter.
13
A wise man's knowledge wells up in a flood, and his counsel, like a living spring;
14
A fool's mind is like a broken jar - no knowledge at all can it hold.
15
When an intelligent man hears words of wisdom, he approves them and adds to them; The wanton hears them with scorn and casts them behind his back.

A fool's chatter is like a load on a journey, but there is charm to be found upon the lips of the wise.
17
The views of a prudent man are sought in an assembly, and his words are considered with care.

Like a house in ruins is wisdom to a fool; the stupid man knows it only as inscrutable words.
19
Like fetters on the legs is learning to a fool, like a manacle on his right hand.

A fool raises his voice in laughter, but the prudent man at the most smiles gently.
21
Like a chain of gold is learning to a wise man, like a bracelet on his right arm.
22
The fool steps boldly into a house, while the well-bred man remains outside;
23
A boor peeps through the doorway of a house, but a cultured man keeps his glance cast down.
24
It is rude for one to listen at a door; a cultured man would be overwhelmed by the disgrace of it.
25
The lips of the impious talk of what is not their concern, but the words of the prudent are carefully weighed.
26
Fools' thoughts are in their mouths, wise men's words are in their hearts.
27
When a godless man curses his adversary he really curses himself.
28
A slanderer besmirches himself, and is hated by his neighbors.
