7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so.
7 The lips of the wise spread knowledge, but the hearts of fools are not upright.
7 The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so the hearts of fools.
7 Perceptive words spread knowledge; fools are hollow - there's nothing to them.
7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge, But the heart of the fool does not do so.
7 The lips of the wise give good advice; the heart of a fool has none to give.

We use knowledge aright when we disperse it; but the heart of the foolish has nothing to disperse that is good.
