A man who commits adultery has no sense. Anyone who does it destroys himself.

“ How long will you childish people love your childish ways? How long will you rude people enjoy making fun of God and others? How long will you foolish people hate knowledge?

People like that are not serving Christ our Lord. They are serving only themselves. With smooth talk and with words they don’t mean they fool people who don’t know any better.Everyone has heard that you obey God. So you have filled me with joy. I want you to be wise about what is good. And I want you to have nothing to do with what is evil.

They give understanding to childish people. They give knowledge and good sense to those who are young.

She says,“ Let all who are childish come to my house!” She speaks to those who have no sense. She says,

“ Don’t you understand yet?” Jesus asked them.

Childish people act in keeping with their foolish ways. But knowledge makes wise people feel like kings.

“ The wrong path that childish people take will kill them. Foolish people will be destroyed by being satisfied with the way they live.

The Lord says,“ My people are foolish. They do not know me. They are children who do not have any sense. They have no understanding at all. They are skilled in doing what is evil. They do not know how to do what is good.”

Wise people see danger and go to a safe place. But childish people keep on going and suffer for it.

When your words are made clear, they bring light. They bring understanding to childish people.

Getting excited about something without knowledge isn’t good. It’s even worse to be in a hurry and miss the way.

The law of the Lord is perfect. It gives us new strength. The laws of the Lord can be trusted. They make childish people wise.

You who are childish, get some good sense. You who are foolish, set your hearts on getting it.

I went past the field of someone who didn’t want to work. I went past the vineyard of someone who didn’t have any sense.

“ Let all who are childish come to my house!” She speaks to those who have no sense.

Those who farm their land will have plenty of food. But those who chase dreams have no sense.

Wise people see danger and go to a safe place. But childish people keep going and suffer for it.

If you whip a person who makes fun of others, childish people will learn to be wise. If you warn those who already understand what is right, they will gain even more knowledge.

Wisdom is found on the lips of those who understand what is right. But those who have no sense are punished.

A childish person believes anything. But a wise person thinks about how they live.
