Ecclesiastes 7:5

Ua oi aku ka maikai o ka lohe ana i ka oleloao a ka poe naauao, mamua o ko ke kanaka lohe ana i ka mele lea a ka poe naaupo.

Baibala Hemolele

In The King James Version

It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.

In Context

4O ka naau o ka mea naauao, aia no ia ma ka hale kanikau; aka hoi, o ka naau o ka mea naaupo, aia no ia ma ka hale paani.

6No ka mea, e like me ka paapaaina o na kakalaioa malalo iho o ka ipu hao, pela no ka akaaka ana o ka mea naaupo. He mea lapuwale hoi keia.
