4 Words from the mouth of a man are deep waters. And the fountain of wisdom is a torrent overflowing.
5 It is not good to accept the character of the impious, so as to turn away from true judgment.
6 The lips of the foolish meddle in disputes. And his mouth provokes conflicts.
7 The mouth of the foolish is his destruction, and his own lips are the ruin of his soul.
8 The words of the double-tongued seem simple. And they reach even to the interior of the gut. Fear casts down the lazy, but the souls of the effeminate shall go hungry.
