Proverbs 14:8-10

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁸The sensible man’s wisdom is to consider his way,
but the stupidity of fools deceives them.

⁹Fools mock at making restitution,^[a]
but there is goodwill among the upright.

¹⁰The heart knows its own bitterness,
and no outsider shares in its joy.

but goodwill is found among the upright.

and no one else can share its joy.
