Proverbs 14:33

Conservative English Version

Wisdom is found in the minds of people with good sense, but fools don't know it.

See the chapter Copy

Losing your temper is foolish; ignoring an insult is smart.

Be sensible and don't tell everything you know-- only fools spread foolishness everywhere.

If you have good sense, you will act sensibly, but fools act like fools.

In times of trouble the wicked are destroyed, but even at death the innocent have faith.

Doing right brings honor to a nation, but sin brings disgrace.

Words of wisdom come from the wise, but fools speak foolishness.

Good people think before they answer, but the wicked speak evil without ever thinking.

Wisdom will control your mind, and you will be pleased with knowledge.

Don't be a fool and quickly lose your temper-- be sensible and patient.

Fools show their stupidity by the way they live; it's easy to see they have no sense.
