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.
7 The mouth of a fool is ruin to him, and his lips are a snare to his soul.
8 The words of a whisper are like delicious morsels, and they themselves go down to inner parts of the body.
9 Even he who is slack in his work, he is brother to a master of destruction.
