1 An unfriendly person pursues selfish endsand against all sound judgment starts quarrels.
2 Fools find no pleasure in understandingbut delight in airing their own opinions.
3 When wickedness comes, so does contempt,and with shame comes reproach.
4 The words of the mouth are deep waters,but the fountain of wisdom is a rushing stream.
5 It is not good to be partial to the wickedand so deprive the innocent of justice.
