4. The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters; The wellspring of wisdom is as a flowing brook.
5. To respect the person of the wicked is not good, Nor to turn aside the righteous in judgment.
6. A fool’s lips enter into contention, And his mouth calleth for stripes.
7. A fool’s mouth is his destruction, And his lips are the snare of his soul.
8. The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, And they go down into the innermost parts.
9. He also that is slack in his work Is brother to him that is a destroyer.
10. The name of Jehovah is a strong tower; The righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
11. The rich man’s wealth is his strong city, And as a high wall in his own imagination.
