Proverbs 14:33

American Standard Version (1901)

Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding; But that which is in the inward part of fools is made known.

See the chapter Copy

A fool’s vexation is presently known; But a prudent man concealeth shame.

Yea also, when the fool walketh by the way, his understanding faileth him, and he saith to every one that he is a fool.

A fool uttereth all his anger; But a wise man keepeth it back and stilleth it.

The heart of the righteous studieth to answer; But the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.

Every prudent man worketh with knowledge; But a fool flaunteth his folly.

A prudent man concealeth knowledge; But the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.

The tongue of the wise uttereth knowledge aright; But the mouth of fools poureth out folly.

For wisdom shall enter into thy heart, And knowledge shall be pleasant unto thy soul;

The wicked is thrust down in his evil-doing; But the righteous hath a refuge in his death.

Righteousness exalteth a nation; But sin is a reproach to any people.
