Wisdom is before the face of one who has understanding, but the eyes of a fool wander to the ends of the earth.

聪明人面前有智慧；愚昧人眼望地的尽头。

聪明人面前有智慧；愚昧人眼望地的尽头。

哲士追求智慧，愚人漫无目标。

聪明人面前有智慧，愚昧人却眼望地极。

智慧就在有悟性的人面前；愚昧人的眼却望着地极。

明哲人眼前有智慧；愚昧人眼望地極。

聰明人面前有智慧；愚昧人眼望地的盡頭。

聰明人面前有智慧；愚昧人眼望地的盡頭。

達者用智於其前、蠢人游目於地極、

智者見道於目前、愚者放心於天外、

明哲人目前有智慧、愚者之目、視智慧在地極、

A discerning person keeps wisdom in view, but a fool’s eyes wander to the ends of the earth.

Anyone who understands what is right keeps wisdom in view. But the eyes of a foolish person look everywhere else.

The discerning sets his face toward wisdom, but the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth.

Sensible people keep their eyes glued on wisdom, but a fool’s eyes wander to the ends of the earth.

Wisdom is the focus of the perceptive, but a fool’s eyes roam to the ends of the earth.

Wisdom is in the presence of one who has understanding, But the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth.

Wisdom[ is] before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool[ are] in the ends of the earth.

Wisdom is directly in front of the discerning person, but the eyes of a fool run to the ends of the earth.

The wise man’s eyes are in his head, and the fool walks in darkness— and yet I perceived that one event happens to them all.

A scoffer seeks wisdom, and doesn’t find it, but knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.

If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God, or if I am speaking from myself.

The heart of one who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.

Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire. This also is vanity and a chasing after wind.

Who is like the wise man? And who knows the interpretation of a thing? A man’s wisdom makes his face shine, and the hardness of his face is changed.

Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky.

Turn my eyes away from looking at worthless things. Revive me in your ways.
