1 Unfriendly people look out for themselves;they bicker with sensible people.
2 Fools find no pleasure in understanding,but only in expressing their opinion.
3 When the wicked arrive, so does contempt;with shame comes insult.
4 The words of a person’s mouth are deep waters,a bubbling stream, a fountain of wisdom.
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.
