Proverbs 8:5-7
Wycliffe Bible

5 Little children, that is, little of wit, understand ye wisdom; and ye unwise men, perceiveth in heart. (Ye of little intelligence, understand ye wisdom; and ye who be unwise, think in your hearts.)

6 Hear ye (Listen ye), for I shall speak of great things; and my lips shall be opened, to preach rightful things.

7 My throat shall bethink truth; and my lips shall curse a wicked man. (My mouth shall speak the truth; and my lips shall curse the wicked/for my lips hate wicked words.)
