5 O that you would (A)be completely silent,And that it would become your wisdom!
3 Is there no end to (A)windy words?Or what pains you that you answer?
4 I too could speak like you,If your soul were in the place of my soul.I could compose words against youAnd (A)shake my head at you.
2 “Who is this that (A)darkens counselBy words without knowledge?
14 Wise men (A)store up knowledge,But (B)the mouth of the ignorant fool draws ruin near.
23 A (A)prudent man conceals knowledge,But the heart of fools proclaims folly.
3 The one who (A)guards his mouth keeps his soul;The one who (B)opens wide his lips [a]comes to ruin.
