{22:8} Whoever explains a word to one who is not listening is like someone who suddenly awakens a sleeping person from a deep sleep.
{22:9} Whoever explains wisdom to the senseless is like one speaking to a sleeping person. And at the end of the explanation, he says: “Who is this?”
{22:10} Weep over the dead, for his light has failed. And weep over the foolish, for his understanding has failed.
{22:11} Weep only a little over the dead, for he is at rest.
{22:12} But the wicked life of a wicked fool is worse than death.
{22:13} The mourning for the dead is seven days; but for the foolish and the impious, it is all the days of their life.
{22:14} You should not talk at length with the foolish, and you should not go with the senseless.
