Proverbs 18:6

⁶A fool’s lips come into strife, and his mouth invites beatings.

⁶A fool’s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.

⁶A fool’s lips bring him strife, and his mouth invites a beating.

⁶What stupid people say gets them into fights, as if they're asking for a beating.

³A stone is heavy, and sand is a burden; but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.

²⁷A worthless man devises mischief. His speech is like a scorching fire. ²⁸A perverse man stirs up strife. A whisperer separates close friends.

²⁴Don’t befriend a hot-tempered man. Don’t associate with one who harbors anger, ²⁵lest you learn his ways and ensnare your soul.

¹⁶A fool shows his annoyance the same day, but one who overlooks an insult is prudent.

³It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife, but every fool will be quarreling.

²⁹Penalties are prepared for scoffers, and beatings for the backs of fools.

¹⁶A wise man fears and shuns evil, but the fool is hot headed and reckless.

¹⁰Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is with people who take advice.

³The fool’s talk brings a rod to his back, but the lips of the wise protect them.

⁹If a wise man goes to court with a foolish man, the fool rages or scoffs, and there is no peace.
