⁹ With his mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor,
    but the righteous will be delivered through knowledge.

⁶ The words of the wicked are about lying in wait for blood,
    but the speech of the upright rescues them.

²⁷ A worthless man devises mischief.
    His speech is like a scorching fire.
²⁸ A perverse man stirs up strife.
    A whisperer separates close friends.

⁵ Whoever mocks the poor reproaches his Maker.
    He who is glad at calamity shall not be unpunished.
