Lexicon :: Strong's H3684 - kᵊsîl

For he sees ^H7200 that even wise ^H2450 people ^H2450 die ^H4191;

The foolish ^H3684 and the stupid ^H1198 alike ^H3162 perish ^H6

And leave ^H5800 their wealth ^H2428 to others ^H312.

A stupid ^H1198 person ^H376 has ^H3045 no ^H3808 knowledge ^H3045,

Nor ^H3808 does a foolish ^H3684 person ^H3684 understand ^H995 this ^H2088:

Pay ^H995 attention ^H995, you stupid ^H1197 ones among the people ^H5971;

And when ^H4970 will you understand ^H7919, foolish ^H3684 ones ^H3684?

“How ^H4970 long ^H5704 H4970, you naive ^H6612 ones ^H6612, will you love ^H157 simplistic ^H6612 thinking ^H6612?

And how long will scoffers ^H3887 delight ^H2530 themselves in scoffing ^H3944

And fools ^H3684 hate ^H8130 knowledge ^H1847?

“For the faithlessness ^H4878 of the naive ^H6612 will kill ^H2026 them,

And the complacency ^H7962 of fools ^H3684 will destroy ^H6 them.

The wise ^H2450 will inherit ^H5157 honor ^H3519,

But fools ^H3684 [fn]increase ^H7311 dishonor ^H7036.

“You naive ^H6612 ones ^H6612, understand ^H995 prudence ^H6195;

And, you fools ^H3684, understand ^H995 [fn]wisdom ^H3820!

The proverbs ^H4912 of Solomon ^H8010.

A wise ^H2450 son ^H1121 makes ^H8055 a father ^H1 glad ^H8055,

But a foolish ^H3684 son ^H1121 is a grief ^H8424 to his mother ^H517.

One who conceals ^H3680 hatred ^H8135 has lying ^H8267 lips ^H8193,

And one who spreads ^H3318 slander ^H1681 is a fool ^H3684.

Doing ^H6213 wickedness ^H2154 is like sport ^H7814 to a fool ^H3684,

And so is wisdom ^H2451 to a person ^H376 of understanding ^H8394.

A prudent ^H6175 person ^H120 conceals ^H3680 knowledge ^H1847,

But the heart ^H3820 of fools ^H3684 proclaims ^H7121 foolishness ^H200.

Every ^H3605 prudent ^H6175 person ^H6175 acts ^H6213 with knowledge ^H1847,

But a fool ^H3684 [fn]displays ^H6566 foolishness ^H200.

Desire ^H8378 realized ^H1961 is sweet ^H6149 to the soul ^H5315,

But it is an abomination ^H8441 to fools ^H3684 to turn ^H5493 away ^H5493 from evil ^H7451.

Leave ^H1980 the presence ^H5048 of a fool ^H3684,

Or you will not [fn]discern ^H3045 [fn]words ^H8193 of knowledge ^H1847.

A wise ^H2450 person ^H2450 [fn]is cautious ^H3372 and turns ^H5493 away ^H5493 from evil ^H7451,

But a fool ^H3684 is ^H5674 arrogant ^H5674 and careless ^H982.

The crown ^H5850 of the wise ^H2450 is their riches ^H6239,

But the foolishness ^H200 of fools ^H3684 is simply foolishness ^H200.

Wisdom ^H2451 rests ^H5117 in the heart ^H3820 of one who has ^H995 understanding ^H995,

But among ^H7130 fools ^H3684 it is made ^H3045 known ^H3045.

The tongue ^H3956 of the wise ^H2450 makes ^H3190 knowledge ^H1847 pleasant ^H3190,

But the mouth ^H6310 of fools ^H3684 spouts ^H5042 foolishness ^H200.

The lips ^H8193 of the wise ^H2450 spread ^H2219 knowledge ^H1847,

But the hearts ^H3820 of fools ^H3684 are not so ^H3651.

The mind ^H3820 of the intelligent ^H995 seeks ^H1245 knowledge ^H1847,

But the mouth ^H6310 of fools ^H3684 feeds ^H7462 on foolishness ^H200.

A wise ^H2450 son ^H1121 makes ^H8055 a father ^H1 glad ^H8055,

But a foolish ^H3684 man ^H120 despises ^H959 his mother ^H517.

A rebuke ^H1606 goes ^H5181 deeper ^H5181 into one who has ^H995 understanding ^H995

Than ^H4480 a hundred ^H3967 blows ^H5221 into a fool ^H3684.

Let a person ^H376 meet ^H6298 a bear ^H1677 robbed ^H7909 of ^H7909 her cubs ^H7909,

Rather ^H408 than a fool ^H3684 in his foolishness ^H200.

Why ^H4100 H2088 is there money ^H4242 in the hand ^H3027 of a fool ^H3684 to buy ^H7069 wisdom ^H2451,

When [fn]he has ^H369 no ^H369 sense ^H3820?

He who fathers ^H3205 a fool ^H3684 does so to his sorrow ^H8424,

And the father ^H1 of a fool ^H5036 has ^H8055 no ^H3808 joy ^H8055.

Wisdom ^H2451 is in the presence ^H6440 of one who has ^H995 understanding ^H995,

But the eyes ^H5869 of a fool ^H3684 are on the ends ^H7097 of the earth ^H776.

A fool ^H3684 does not delight ^H2654 in understanding ^H8394,

But in revealing ^H1540 his own [fn]mind ^H3820.

A fool’s ^H3684 lips ^H8193 [fn]bring ^H935 strife ^H7379,

And his mouth ^H6310 invites ^H7121 beatings ^H4112.

Better ^H2896 is a poor ^H7326 person ^H7326 who walks ^H1980 in his integrity ^H8537

Than ^H4480 a person who is perverse ^H6141 in [fn]speech ^H8193 and is a fool ^H3684.

Luxury ^H8588 is not fitting ^H5000 for a fool ^H3684;

Much ^H637 H3588 less ^H637 for a slave ^H5650 to rule ^H4910 over princes ^H8269.

A foolish ^H3684 son ^H1121 is destruction ^H1942 to his father ^H1,

And the quarrels ^H4066 of a wife ^H802 are a constant ^H2956 dripping ^H1812.

[fn]Judgments ^H8201 are prepared ^H3559 for scoffers ^H3887,

And beatings ^H4112 for the backs ^H1460 of fools ^H3684.

There is precious ^H2530 treasure ^H214 and oil ^H8081 in the home ^H5116 of the wise ^H2450,

But a foolish ^H3684 person ^H120 swallows ^H1104 it up ^H1104.

Do not speak ^H1696 [fn]to be heard ^H241 by a fool ^H3684,

For he will despise ^H936 the wisdom ^H7922 of your words ^H4405.

Like snow ^H7950 in summer ^H7019 and like rain ^H4306 in harvest ^H7105,

So ^H3651 honor ^H3519 is not fitting ^H5000 for a fool ^H3684.

A whip ^H7752 is for the horse ^H5483, a bridle ^H4964 for the donkey ^H2543,

And a rod ^H7626 for the back ^H1460 of fools ^H3684.

One who trusts ^H982 in his own heart ^H3820 is a fool ^H3684,

But one who walks ^H1980 wisely ^H2451 will flee ^H4422 to ^H4422 safety ^H4422.
