9 Those who walk in innocence walk with confidence,but those on crooked paths will be found out.
10 Those who wink an eye bring trouble;those who speak foolishly are ruined.
11 The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
12 Hate stirs up conflict,but love covers all offenses.
13 Wisdom is found on the lips of those who have understanding,but there is a rod for the back of those with no sense.
14 The wise store up knowledge,but the mouth of a fool brings on ruin.
15 The riches of the wealthy are their strong city;the ruin of the poor is their poverty.
