6The lips of a fool bring him into troubles, And his bold mouth calls for death.
7A fool’s mouth is ruin to him, And his lips are a snare to his soul.
8Fear casts down the slothful; And the souls of the effeminate shall hunger.
9A man who helps not himself by his labor Is brother of him that ruins himself.
10The name of the Lord is of great strength; And the righteous running to it are exalted.
