Proverbs 14:6-9

6The mocker seeks wisdom and finds none, but knowledge comes easily to the discerning.

7Stay away from a fool, for you will not find knowledge on their lips.

8The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways, but the folly of fools is deception.

9Fools mock at making amends for sin, but goodwill is found among the upright.
