Proverbs 24:7-9 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

7. Wisdom is too high for anyone who is foolish. He has nothing to say when people meet at the city gate to conduct business.

8. Anyone who thinks up sinful things to do will be known as one who plans evil.

9. Foolish plans are sinful. People hate those who make fun of others.
