פְּתִי פֶּתִי פְּתָאִי

The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.

The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.

The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.

How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?

For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.

And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,

O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.

Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,

Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,

The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.

The simple inherit folly: but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.

Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.

When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.

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

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

And so thou shalt do the seventh day of the month for every one that erreth, and for him that is simple: so shall ye reconcile the house.
