Lexham English Bible

²⁵It is a snare to humankind to say rashly “It is holy,”
and after vows, to scrutinize.

⁸Go not forth hastily to strive,
^[a]Lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof,
When thy neighbor hath put thee to shame.

Proverbs 25:8 Or, Lest it be said in the end thereof, What wilt thou do? When etc.

⁸do not hastily bring out to court,
for^[a] what will you do at its end,
when your neighbor puts you to shame?

²⁰Seest thou a man that is hasty in his ^[a]words?
There is more hope of a fool than of him.

²⁰You see a man who is hasty in his words:
there is more hope for a fool than him.
