6A fool's lips bring him conflict and his mouth invites a beating.
7A fool's mouth is his ruin and he ensnares himself with his lips.
8The words of a gossip are like delicious morsels and they go down into the inner parts of the body.
9Also, one who is slack in his work is a brother to the one who destroys the most.
10The name of Yahweh is a strong tower; the righteous person runs into it and is safe.
11The wealth of the rich is his fortified city and in his imagination it is like a high wall.
12Before his downfall a person's heart is proud, but humility comes before honor.
13One who answers before listening— it is his folly and shame.
14A person's spirit will survive sickness, but a broken spirit who can bear it?
