“Homo versatus celat scientiam, et cor insipientium provocat stultitiam.”
“A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.”
“A shrewd man keeps his knowledge to himself, but a foolish heart proclaims its folly.”
“A prudent man keeps his knowledge, but the hearts of fools proclaim foolishness.”
“A prudent man concealeth knowledge; But the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.”
Cautious. Versutus is taken in a good, as well as in a bad sense. The wise are reserved in speaking, Proverbs xvi. 14. (Calmet)
12 The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.
