6. A fool’s lips enter into contention,and his mouth calls for flogging.
7. A fool’s mouth is his destruction,and his lips are the snare of his soul.
8. The words of a talebearer are as wounds,and they go down into the innermost parts of the body.
9. He also who is slothful in his workis brother to him who is a great waster.
10. The name of the Lord is a strong tower;the righteous run into it and are safe.
11. The rich man’s wealth is his strong city,and as a high wall in his own conceit.
12. Before destruction the heart of man is haughty,and before honor is humility.
