"Doing wrong is like a joke to a fool, but wisdom is pleasure to a man of understanding."
A ‘fool’ thinks raising hell and being stupid is something funny, you can pick any number of current comedy movies as a prime example of "An Idiots Guide to being a Fool".
But a man (or woman) of understanding enjoys the pleasure found in wisdom. What a great illustration of the difference between childishness and having grown into true maturity.
It also points up how in the book of Proverbs wisdom is more than being brain-smart. True wisdom encompasses emotional and spiritual intelligence too.
