Proverbs 24:7-11 Amplified Bible (AMP)

7. Wisdom is too high for a fool; he opens not his mouth in the gate [where the city's rulers sit in judgment].

8. He who plans to do evil will be called a mischief-maker.

9. The plans of the foolish and the thought of foolishness are sin, and the scoffer is an abomination to men.

10. If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small.

11. Deliver those who are drawn away to death, and those who totter to the slaughter, hold them back [from their doom].
