Bible in Basic English
"A foolish man has no pleasure in good sense, but only to let what is in his heart come to light."
— Proverbs 18:2, Bible in Basic English
“A fool has no delight in understanding, but only in revealing his own opinion.”
He who keeps himself separate for his private purpose goes against all good sense.
A foolish man has no pleasure in good sense, but only to let what is in his heart come to light.
When the evil-doer comes, a low opinion comes with him, and with the loss of honour comes shame.
The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters: the fountain of wisdom is like a flowing stream.
To have respect for the person of the evil-doer is not good, or to give a wrong decision against the upright.
