13. In the transgression of the lips is a snare to the evil man; But the righteous shall come out of trouble.
14. A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth; And the doings of a man’s hands shall be rendered unto him.
15. The way of a fool is right in his own eyes; But he that is wise hearkeneth unto counsel.
16. A fool’s vexation is presently known; But a prudent man concealeth shame.
17. He that uttereth truth showeth forth righteousness; But a false witness, deceit.
18. There is that speaketh rashly like the piercings of a sword; But the tongue of the wise is health.
19. The lip of truth shall be established for ever; But a lying tongue is but for a moment.
20. Deceit is in the heart of them that devise evil; But to the counsellors of peace is joy.
