² A fool does not delight in understanding,
But ^(A)in revealing his own ^[a]mind.

⁶ A fool’s lips ^[a]bring strife,
And his mouth invites ^(A)beatings.
⁷ A ^(B)fool’s mouth is his ruin,
And his lips are the snare of his soul.

¹³ One who ^(A)gives an answer before he hears,
It is foolishness and shame to him.
