A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; But the simple pass on, and suffer for it.

The sharp man sees the evil and takes cover: the simple go straight on and get into trouble.

Ο φρονιμος προβλεπει το κακον και κρυπτεται· οι αφρονες ομως προχωρουσι και τιμωρουνται.

A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.
