Proverbs 18:6-8
World English Bible
6 A fool’s lips come into strife,
and his mouth invites beatings.
7 A fool’s mouth is his destruction,
and his lips are a snare to his soul.
8 The words of a gossip are like dainty morsels:
they go down into a person’s innermost parts.
Proverbs 18:6-8
New King James Version
6 A fool’s lips enter into contention,
And his mouth calls for blows.
7 (A)A fool’s mouth is his destruction,
And his lips are the snare of his (B)soul.
8 (C)The words of a [a]talebearer are like [b]tasty trifles,
And they go down into the [c]inmost body.
