Proverbs
Chapters 14:5-11
Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version
5A good witness is one who does not lie. A bad witness is a liar who cannot be trusted.
6Anyone who makes fun of wisdom will never find it, but knowledge comes easily to those who understand its value.
7Stay away from fools, there is nothing they can teach you.
8Wisdom lets smart people know what they are doing, but stupid people only think they know.
9Fines are needed to make fools obey the law, but good people are happy to obey it.
10When you are sad, no one else feels the pain; and when you are happy, no one else can really feel the joy.
11An evil person’s house will be destroyed, but a good person’s family will do well.
