24 It is rude for one to listen at a door;the discreet person would be overwhelmed by the disgrace.
25 The lips of the arrogant talk of what is not their concern,but the discreet carefully weigh their words.
26 The mind of fools is in their mouths,but the mouth of the wise is in their mind.
27 When the godless curse their adversary,they really curse themselves.
28 Slanderers sully themselves,and are hated by their neighbors.
