Proverbs 18:5-8 Common English Bible (CEB)

5. Favoring the wicked isn’t good;it denies justice to the righteous.

6. The lips of fools make accusations;their mouths elicit beatings.

7. The mouth of fools is their ruin;their lips are a trap for their lives.

8. The words of gossips are like choice snacks;they go down to the inmost parts.
