A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.

Every prudent[ man] dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth open[ his] folly.

Blessed[ is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.But his delight[ is] in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

The fear of the LORD[ is] the beginning of knowledge:[ but] fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Wherefore[ is there] a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing[ he hath] no heart[ to it]?

Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High,[ which] saw the vision of the Almighty, falling[ into a trance], but having his eyes open:

Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual[ gifts], seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.

And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought[ him] that he would depart out of their coasts.

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

Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam[ the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet.These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.For when they speak great swelling[ words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh,[ through much] wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.

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

How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
