4 The words of a man's mouth are 'as' deep waters; The wellspring of wisdom is 'as' a flowing brook.
5 To respect the person of the wicked is not good, 'Nor' to turn aside the righteous in judgment.
6 A fool's lips enter into contention, And his mouth calleth for stripes.
7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, And his lips are the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, And they go down into the innermost parts.
