¹⁵The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.

Proverbs 14:15

New International Version

¹⁵The simple believe anything,
but the prudent give thought to their steps.^(A)

¹⁶A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident.

¹⁶The wise fear the Lord and shun evil,^(A)
but a fool^(B) is hotheaded and yet feels secure.

¹²A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.

¹²The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.^(A)
