20:018:001 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.
20:018:002 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
20:018:003 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.
20:018:004 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
20:018:005 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
20:018:006 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
20:018:007 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
20:018:008 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
20:018:009 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
20:018:010 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
