But the foolishness of [shortsighted] fools is deceit.
The mind of the prudent [always] acquires knowledge,
And the ear of the wise [always] seeks knowledge.
Every prudent and self-disciplined man acts with knowledge,
But a [closed-minded] fool [who refuses to learn] displays his foolishness [for all to see].
A prudent and far-sighted person sees the evil [of sin] and hides himself [from it],
But the naive continue on and are punished [by suffering the consequences of sin].

Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine
Within the innermost part of your house;
Your children will be like olive plants
Around your table.
The heart of her husband trusts in her [with secure confidence],
And he will have no lack of gain.
A virtuous and excellent wife [worthy of honor] is the crown of her husband,
But she who shames him [with her foolishness] is like rottenness in his bones.
For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.
