1 He who is selfish seeks a craving; against all sound judgment he shows contempt.
2 A fool will not take pleasure in understanding, but in expressing his heart.
3 With the coming of wickedness comes contempt also, and with dishonor, disgrace.
4 Deep waters are words of the mouth of a man; a gushing stream is a fountain of wisdom.
5 Being partial to faces of evil is not good, nor to subvert the righteous at the judgment.
6 The lips of a fool will bring strife, and his mouth calls out for a flogging.
