2 The tongue of the wise pours out knowledge,but the mouth of fools spews folly.
3 The eyes of the Lord are in every place,keeping watch on the evil and the good.
4 A soothing tongue is a tree of life,but a perverse one breaks the spirit.
5 The fool spurns a father’s instruction,but whoever heeds reproof is prudent.
6 In the house of the just there are ample resources,but the harvest of the wicked is in peril.
7 The lips of the wise spread knowledge,but the heart of fools is not steadfast.
8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord,but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
