10:12 The words of a wise person 1 win him 2 favor, 3
but the words 4 of a fool are self-destructive. 5
10:13 At the beginning his words 6 are foolish
and at the end 7 his talk 8 is wicked madness, 9
10:14 yet a fool keeps on babbling. 10
No one knows what will happen;
who can tell him what will happen in the future? 11
10:19 When words abound, transgression is inevitable, 12
but the one who restrains 13 his words 14 is wise.
15:2 The tongue of the wise 15 treats knowledge correctly, 16
but the mouth of the fool spouts out 17 folly.
