Proverbs 10:23

כִּשְׂח֣וֹק לִ֭כְסִיל עֲשׂ֣וֹת זִמָּ֑ה וְ֝חָכְמָ֗ה לְאִ֣ישׁ תְּבוּנָֽה׃
King James Version (KJV)

It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding hath wisdom.

Modern English

Doing wrong is like a joke to a fool, but wisdom is pleasure to a man of understanding.

Hebrew

כִּשְׂח֣וֹק לִ֭כְסִיל עֲשׂ֣וֹת זִמָּ֑ה וְ֝חָכְמָ֗ה לְאִ֣ישׁ תְּבוּנָֽה׃
