Proverbs 18:2

A fool hath no delight in understanding, But only that his heart may reveal itself.

And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor saith, And the man whose eye was closed saith;

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:

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

The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge; But the foolish despise wisdom and instruction.

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

Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, Seeing he hath no understanding?

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

And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart from their borders.

Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.

So also ye, since ye are zealous of spiritual gifts , seek that ye may abound unto the edifying of the church.

forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the'son of Beor, who loved the hire of wrong-doing;

How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? And scoffers delight them in scoffing, And fools hate knowledge?

Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, Seeing he hath no understanding?

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers:

And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart from their borders.

Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.

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

They are all plain to him that understandeth, And right to them that find knowledge.
