Proverbs

⁸The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall. ⁹He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known. ¹⁰He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool shall fall. ¹¹The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked. ¹²Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all transgressions. ¹³In the lips of him that hath discernment wisdom is found: but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding. ¹⁴Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is a present destruction.
