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

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，

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,

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

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

A man who commits adultery with a woman lacks wisdom, whoever does it destroys his own life.

“ How long will you simpletons love naiveté? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?

For these are the kind who do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By their smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of the naive.Your obedience is known to all and thus I rejoice over you. But I want you to be wise in what is good and innocent in what is evil.

To impart shrewdness to the morally naive, and a discerning plan to the young person.

“ Whoever is naive, let him turn in here,” she says to those who lack understanding.

Jesus said,“ Even after all this, are you still so foolish?

The naive inherit folly, but the shrewd are crowned with knowledge.

For the waywardness of the simpletons will kill them, and the careless ease of fools will destroy them.

The LORD answered,“ This will happen because my people are foolish. They do not know me. They are like children who have no sense. They have no understanding. They are skilled at doing evil. They do not know how to do good.”

A shrewd person sees danger and hides himself, but the naive keep right on going and suffer for it.

Your instructions are a doorway through which light shines. They give insight to the untrained.

It is dangerous to have zeal without knowledge, and the one who acts hastily makes poor choices.

The law of the LORD is perfect and preserves one’s life. The rules set down by the LORD are reliable and impart wisdom to the inexperienced.

You who are naive, discern wisdom! And you fools, understand discernment!

I passed by the field of a sluggard, by the vineyard of one who lacks wisdom.

“ Whoever is simple, let him turn in here,” she says to those who lack understanding.

The one who works his field will have plenty of food, but whoever chases daydreams lacks wisdom.

A shrewd person sees danger and hides himself, but the naive keep right on going and suffer for it.

Flog a scorner, and as a result the simpleton will learn prudence; correct a discerning person, and as a result he will understand knowledge.

Wisdom is found in the words of the discerning person, but the one who lacks wisdom will be disciplined.

A naive person believes everything, but the shrewd person discerns his steps.
