Proverbs 18:7-9

⁷The mouth of a fool is the defouling of him; and his lips be the falling of his soul.

⁸The words of a double-tongued man be as simple; and they come unto the inner things of the womb. Dread casteth down a slow man; forsooth the souls of men turned into women’s condition shall have hunger. (A gossip’s wordsbe tasty; and they go down into the innermost parts. Fear casteth down the lazy; and those who be timid shall have hunger.)

⁹He that is nesh, and dissolute, either unsteadfast, in his work, is the brother of a man destroying his works.
