'Prudent' in the Bible

My son, be attentive to my wisdom [godly wisdom learned by costly experience],Incline your ear to my understanding;

When there are many words, transgression and offense are unavoidable,But he who controls his lips and keeps thoughtful silence is wise.

The [arrogant] fool’s anger is quickly known [because he lacks self-control and common sense],But a prudent man ignores an insult.

A shrewd man is reluctant to display his knowledge [until the proper time],But the heart of [over-confident] fools proclaims foolishness.

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].

The wisdom of the sensible is to understand his way,But the foolishness of [shortsighted] fools is deceit.

The naive or inexperienced person [is easily misled and] believes every word he hears,But the prudent man [is discreet and astute and] considers well where he is going.

The naive [are unsophisticated and easy to exploit and] inherit foolishness,But the sensible [are thoughtful and far-sighted and] are crowned with knowledge.

The wise in heart will be called understanding,And sweet speech increases persuasiveness and learning [in both speaker and listener].

The mind of the prudent [always] acquires knowledge,And the ear of the wise [always] seeks knowledge.

House and wealth are the inheritance from fathers,But a wise, understanding, and sensible wife is [a gift and blessing] from the Lord.

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].

A prudent man sees evil and hides himself and avoids it,But the naive [who are easily misled] continue on and are punished [by suffering the consequences of sin].
