4 Deep waters 'are' the words of a man's mouth, The fountain of wisdom 'is' a flowing brook.
5 Acceptance of the face of the wicked 'is' not good, To turn aside the righteous in judgment.
6 The lips of a fool enter into strife, And his mouth for stripes calleth.
7 The mouth of a fool 'is' ruin to him, And his lips 'are' the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a tale-bearer 'are' as self-inflicted wounds, And they have gone down 'to' the inner parts of the heart.
