'The tongue of the wise makes knowledge acceptable...'

How does this read to you? It is the nasb version.

Makes the scripture obscure, I prefer the KJV:
"The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright"

what is wisdom? - the correct use of knowledge ... we all have knowledge but heart-wisdom will use what is appropriate ane leave what distracts.

(One of the authors of the NASB wanted to distance himself because it gives far too much weight to two manuscripts which are shown to be unreliable - source)

I looked at that version, and it does look good here. Sorry, cannot go crazy trying to learn that kind of language with the KJV. I was asking what kind if version I could get next, and the Lord said, 'You have one.' As my attention was drawn back to it. So I am reading the nasb as long as the Lord sees fit.
