Doing wrong is like a joke to a fool, but wisdom is pleasure to a man of understanding.
Folly is a joy to him who lacks sense, but a man of understanding walks straight ahead.
Fools mock at the guilt offering, but the upright enjoy acceptance.
who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perverseness of evil,
Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, “I am only joking!”
Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.
