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.
9 He also that is remiss in his work, A brother he 'is' to a destroyer.
10 A tower of strength 'is' the name of Jehovah, Into it the righteous runneth, and is set on high.
