2. A fool has no delight in understanding, but in that which his own heart discovers.
3. When the wicked comes, then comes also contempt, and with him who dishonours, reproach.
4. The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
5. To respect the person of the wicked so that the righteous loses that which is rightfully his is not good.
6. A fool’s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calls for strokes.
