Proverbs 17:24
Berean Standard Bible
Wisdom is the focus of the discerning, but the eyes of a fool wander to the ends of the earth.
Context
22A joyful heart is good medicine,
but a broken spirit dries up the bones. 23A wicked man takes a covert bribe *
to subvert the course of justice. 24Wisdom is the focus of the discerning,
but the eyes of a fool wander to the ends of the earth. 25A foolish son brings grief to his father
and bitterness to her who bore him. 26It is surely not good to punish the innocent
or to flog a noble for his honesty.
