3From the mouth of a fool comes an offshoot of his pride, but the lips of the wise will preserve them.
4Where there are no cattle the feeding trough is clean, but an abundant crop can come by the strength of an ox.
5A faithful witness does not lie, but a false witness breathes out lies.
6A mocker seeks wisdom and there is none, but knowledge comes easy to the one who is discerning.
7Walk away from a foolish person, for you will not find knowledge on his lips.
