Ecclesiasticus Chapter 21

¹⁷ They enquire at the mouth of the wise man in the congregation, and they shall ponder his words in their heart.

¹⁸ As is a house that is destroyed, so is wisdom to a fool: and the knowledge of the unwise is as talk without sense.

¹⁹ Doctrine unto fools is as fetters on the feet, and like manacles on the right hand.

²⁰ A fool lifteth up his voice with laughter; but a wise man doth scarce smile a little.
