Proverbs 17:24

²⁴Wisdom is before the face of one who has understanding, but the eyes of a fool wander to the ends of the earth.

²⁴Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.

²⁴Wisdom is the focus of the discerning, but the eyes of a fool wander to the ends of the earth.

²⁴Sensible people focus on wisdom, but the eyes of stupid people are always wandering.

¹⁴The wise man’s eyes are in his head, and the fool walks in darkness—and yet I perceived that one event happens to them all.

¹Who is like the wise man? And who knows the interpretation of a thing? A man’s wisdom makes his face shine, and the hardness of his face is changed.

³⁷Turn my eyes away from looking at worthless things. Revive me in your ways.

⁶A scoffer seeks wisdom, and doesn’t find it, but knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.

¹⁷If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God or if I am speaking from myself.

¹⁶For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s.

⁹Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire. This also is vanity and a chasing after wind.

¹⁴The heart of one who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.

⁵Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky.
