But ^[a]violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

⁸ The wise in heart will receive commandments;
But ^[a]a prating fool ^[b]shall fall.

¹⁰ He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow;
But ^[a]a prating fool ^[b]shall fall.
¹¹ The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life;
But ^[c]violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

¹⁴ Wise men lay up knowledge;
But the mouth of the foolish is a present destruction.

⁹ With his mouth the godless man destroyeth his neighbor;
But through knowledge shall the righteous be delivered.
