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

¹⁴ The 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.

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

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

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

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

¹ Who 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.

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

¹⁶ For 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.

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