7 Stay away from a foolish man. You won't find knowledge in what he says.
8 People are wise and understanding when they think about the way they live. But people are foolish when their foolish ways trick them.
9 Foolish people laugh at making things right when they sin. But honest people try to do the right thing.
10 Each heart knows its own sadness. And no one else can share its joy.
11 The houses of sinners will be destroyed. But the tents of honest people will stand firm.
12 There is a way that may seem right to a man. But in the end it leads to death.
13 Even when you laugh, your heart can be hurting. And your joy can end in sadness.
