Proverbs 14:33

King James 2000

Wisdom rests in the heart of him that has understanding: but that which is in the midst of fools is made known.

See the chapter Copy

A fool's wrath is at once known: but a prudent man covers shame.

A prudent man conceals knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaims foolishness.

Every prudent man deals with knowledge: but a fool lays open his folly.

The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous has hope in his death.

Righteousness exalts a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

The tongue of the wise uses knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools pours out foolishness.

The heart of the righteous studies to answer: but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.

When wisdom enters into your heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto your soul;

A fool utters all his mind: but a wise man keeps it in till afterwards.

Yea also, when he that is a fool walks by the way, his wisdom fails him, and he says to every one that he is a fool.
