3 When wickedness comes, contempt also comes, And with shame comes disgrace.
4 The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters. The fountain of wisdom is like a flowing brook.
5 To be partial to the faces of the wicked is not good, Nor to deprive the innocent of justice.
6 A fool's lips come into strife, And his mouth invites beatings.
7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, And his lips are a snare to his soul.
