ASV(i)
4 The words of a man's mouth are [as] deep waters;
The wellspring of wisdom is [as] a flowing brook. 5 To respect the person of the wicked is not good,
[Nor] to turn aside the righteous in judgment. 6 A fool's lips enter into contention,
And his mouth calleth for stripes. 7 A fool's mouth is his destruction,
And his lips are the snare of his soul.
