Proverbs 26:16

Conservative English Version

A lazy person says, "I am smarter than everyone else."

See the chapter Copy

Fools think they know what is best, but a sensible person listens to advice.

There is more hope for a fool than for someone who says, "I'm really smart!"

My child, show good sense! Then I will be happy and able to answer anyone who criticizes me.

You lazy people can learn by watching an anthill.

Honor Christ and let him be the Lord of your life. Always be ready to give an answer when someone asks you about your hope.
