Proverbs 14:15 New English Translation

¹⁵A naive person^[a] will believe anything,
but the shrewd person discerns his steps.^[b]

Proverbs 14:15 sn The contrast is with the simpleton and the shrewd. The simpleton is the young person who is untrained morally or intellectually, and therefore gullible. The shrewd one is the prudent person, the one who has the ability to make critical discriminations.
Proverbs 14:15 tn Heb “his step”; cf. TEV “sensible people watch their step.”
