Proverbs 18:4-7

4 The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters,
but the fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook.

5 It is not good to be partial to the wicked
or to deprive the innocent of justice.

6 A fool’s lips bring him strife,
and his mouth invites a beating.

7 A fool’s mouth is his undoing,
and his lips are a snare to his soul.
