Proverbs 18:4-8

The words of a person’s mouth are deep waters; The fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook.

To show partiality to the wicked is not good, Nor to suppress the righteous in judgment.

A fool’s lips bring strife, And his mouth invites beatings.

A fool’s mouth is his ruin, And his lips are the snare of his soul.

The words of a gossiper are like dainty morsels, And they go down into the innermost parts of the body.
