9 Whoever walks in integrity walks securely,but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out.
10 Whoever winks maliciously causes grief,and a chattering fool comes to ruin.
11 The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
12 Hatred stirs up conflict,but love covers over all wrongs.
13 Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning,but a rod is for the back of one who has no sense.
14 The wise store up knowledge,but the mouth of a fool invites ruin.
15 The wealth of the rich is their fortified city,but poverty is the ruin of the poor.
