4. The reckless mind will gain knowledge,and the stammering tongue will speak clearly and fluently.
5. A fool will no longer be called a noble, nor a scoundrel said to be important.
6. For a fool speaks foolishnessand his mind plots iniquity.He lives in a godless wayand speaks falsely about the Lord.He leaves the hungry emptyand deprives the thirsty of drink.
7. The scoundrel’s weapons are destructive;he hatches plots to destroy the needy with lies,even when the poor says what is right.
8. But a noble person plans noble things;he stands up for noble causes.
9. Stand up, you complacent women; listen to me.Pay attention to what I say,you overconfident daughters.
