And I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, A young man void of understanding,

见愚蒙人内，少年人中，分明有一个无知的少年人，

看见在愚蒙人中，注意到孩儿中有一个无知的青年，

看见在愚蒙人中，注意到孩儿中有一个无知的青年，

只见在愚昧的青年人中，有个无知的青年，

看见在愚蒙人中间，在少年人（“少年人”原文作“众子”）里面，我发觉有一个无知的少年人，

我看到在无知的人中，发现在年轻人中间，有一个缺乏心智的少年人，

見愚蒙人內，少年人中，分明有一個無知的少年人，

看見在愚蒙人中，注意到孩兒中有一個無知的青年，

看見在愚蒙人中，注意到孩兒中有一個無知的青年，

只見在愚昧的青年人中，有個無知的青年，

看見在愚蒙人中間，在少年人（“少年人”原文作“眾子”）裡面，我發覺有一個無知的少年人，

見愚蠢人之內、男子之中、分明有一個全無心思的少年人，

我看到在無知的人中，發現在年輕人中間，有一個缺乏心智的少年人，

見樸拙少年中、有一乏知識者、

則見群少年、懵然無知、中有少者、更乏智慧、

則見在愚拙少年中、有一少者更無慧心、

I saw among the simple, I noticed among the young men, a youth who had no sense.

Among those who were childish I saw a young man who had no sense.

and I have seen among the simple, I have perceived among the youths, a young man lacking sense,

I saw some naive young men, and one in particular who lacked common sense.

I saw among the inexperienced, I noticed among the youths, a young man lacking sense.

And I saw among the naive, And discerned among the youths A young man lacking sense,

And saw among the simple, I perceived among the youths, A young man devoid of understanding,

I saw among the inexperienced, I noticed among the youths, a young man lacking sense.

And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,

and I saw among the naive– I discerned among the youths– a young man who lacked wisdom.

I saw among the simple ones. I discerned among the youths a young man void of understanding,

He that committeth adultery with a woman is void of understanding: He doeth it who would destroy his own soul.

How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? And scoffers delight them in scoffing, And fools hate knowledge?

For they that are such serve not our Lord Christ, but their own belly; and by their smooth and fair speech they beguile the hearts of the innocent.For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I rejoice therefore over you: but I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple unto that which is evil.

To give prudence to the simple, To the young man knowledge and discretion:

Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: As for him that is void of understanding, she saith to him,

And he said, Are ye also even yet without understanding?

The simple inherit folly; But the prudent are crowned with knowledge.

For the backsliding of the simple shall slay them, And the careless ease of fools shall destroy them.

For my people are foolish, they know me not; they are sottish children, and they have no understanding; they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.

A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; But the simple pass on, and suffer for it.

The opening of thy words giveth light; It giveth understanding unto the simple.

Also, that the soul be without knowledge is not good; And he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.

The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul: The testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple.

O ye simple, understand prudence; And, ye fools, be of an understanding heart.

I went by the field of the sluggard, And by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;

Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither; And as for him that is void of understanding, she saith to him,

He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread; But he that followeth after vain persons is void of understanding.

A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; But the simple pass on, and suffer for it.

Smite a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence; And reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.

In the lips of him that hath discernment wisdom is found; But a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.

The simple believeth every word; But the prudent man looketh well to his going.
