Proverbs 14:8-10

Easy-to-Read Version

⁸ Wisdom lets smart people know what they are doing, but stupid people only think they know.

⁹ Fines are needed to make fools obey the law, but good people are happy to obey it.

¹⁰ When you are sad, no one else feels the pain; and when you are happy, no one else can really feel the joy.
