Proverbs 18:4
Compare all
2 A fool has no delight in understanding,
But in expressing his aown heart. 
3 When the wicked comes, contempt comes also;
And with dishonor comes reproach.
4 aThe words of a man’s mouth are deep waters;
bThe wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook. 
5 It is not good to show partiality to the wicked,
Or to overthrow the righteous in ajudgment. 
6 A fool’s lips enter into contention,
And his mouth calls for blows.
7 aA fool’s mouth is his destruction,
And his lips are the snare of his bsoul. 
8 aThe words of a1 talebearer are like tasty trifles,
And they go down into the1 inmost body. 
9 He who is slothful in his work
Is a brother to him who is a great destroyer.
