Yes also when the fool walks by the way, his understanding fails him, and he says to everyone that he is a fool.

Yea also, when he that is a fool H5530 walketh H1980 (QalActPtc) by the way, H1870 his wisdom H3820 faileth H2638 [him], and he saith H559 (QalPerf) to every one [that] he [is] a fool. H5530
