Conferenza Episcopale Italiana
2 Del frutto della sua bocca
l'uomo mangia ciò che è buono;
l'appetito dei perfidi si soddisfa con i soprusi.
3 Chi sorveglia la sua bocca conserva la vita,
chi apre troppo le labbra incontra la rovina.
4 Il pigro brama, ma non c'è nulla per il suo appetito;
l'appetito dei diligenti sarà soddisfatto.
