[ But] whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he[ that] doeth it destroyeth his own soul.

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

For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.For your obedience is come abroad unto all[ men]. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.

To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.

Whoso[ is] simple, let him turn in hither:[ as for] him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,

And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?

The simple inherit folly: but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.

For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.

For my people[ is] foolish, they have not known me; they[ are] sottish children, and they have none understanding: they[ are] wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.

A prudent[ man] foreseeth the evil,[ and] hideth himself;[ but] the simple pass on,[ and] are punished.

The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

Also,[ that] the soul[ be] without knowledge,[ it is] not good; and he that hasteth with[ his] feet sinneth.

The law of the LORD[ is] perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD[ is] sure, making wise the simple.

O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.

I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;

Whoso[ is] simple, let him turn in hither: and[ as for] him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,

He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain[ persons is] void of understanding.

A prudent[ man] foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding,[ and] he will understand knowledge.

In the lips of him that hath understanding 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.
