16 Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it?

17 A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

18 A man void of understanding^a striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend.

19 He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.

20 He that hath a froward^b heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.

21 He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool hath no joy.

22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

23 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment.

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

25 A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bare him.

26 Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity.

Proverbios 17:16 ¿De qué sirve el precio en la mano del necio para comprar sabiduría cuando no tiene entendimiento?

16 Why should a fool have money in his hand to buy wisdom when he has no sense?

16 ¿De qué sirve el precio en la mano del loco para comprar sabiduría, no teniendo corazón para entender

Proverbios 17:16 Es absurdo pagar por la educación de un necio,
puesto que no tiene deseos de aprender.

16 ¿De qué le sirve al necio poseer dinero?¿Podrá adquirir sabiduría si le faltan sesos?

16 ¿De qué sirve el precio en la mano del necio para comprar sabiduría, No teniendo entendimiento?

16 ¿De qué sirve el precio en la mano del loco para comprar sabiduría, no teniendo corazón para entender ?
