Proverbs 18:6-10 New King James Version (NKJV)

6. A fool’s lips enter into contention,And his mouth calls for blows.

7. A fool’s mouth is his destruction,And his lips are the snare of his soul.

8. The words of a talebearer are like tasty trifles,And they go down into the inmost body.

9. He who is slothful in his workIs a brother to him who is a great destroyer.

10. The name of the Lord is a strong tower;The righteous run to it and are safe.
