² A fool hath no delight in understanding,
    but that his heart may discover itself.

⁶ A fool’s lips enter into contention,
    and his mouth calleth for strokes.

⁷ A fool’s mouth is his destruction,
    and his lips are the snare of his soul.

¹³ He that answereth a matter before he heareth it,
    it is folly and shame unto him.
