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.

10 The name of the Lord is a strong ^atower;
The righteous run to it and are¹ safe.
