'Lacks' in the Bible
But whoever commits adultery with a woman lacks common sense and sound judgment and an understanding [of moral principles];He who would destroy his soul does it.
“Whoever is naive or inexperienced, let him turn in here!”As for him who lacks understanding, she says,
“Whoever is naive or inexperienced, let him turn in here!”And to him who lacks understanding (common sense), she says,
He who despises his neighbor lacks sense,But a man of understanding keeps silent.
Better is he who is lightly esteemed and has a servant,Than he who [boastfully] honors himself [pretending to be what he is not] and lacks bread.
A leader who is a great oppressor lacks understanding and common sense [and his wickedness shortens his days],But he who hates unjust gain will [be blessed and] prolong his days.
