One who isolates himself pursues selfish desires;
he rebels against all sound wisdom.
A fool does not delight in understanding,
but only wants to show off his opinions.[fn]
The words of a person’s mouth are deep waters,
a flowing river, a fountain of wisdom.[fn]
The name of the LORD is a strong tower;
the righteous run to it and are protected.[fn]
The wealth of the rich is his fortified city;
in his imagination it is like a high wall.
The one who gives an answer before he listens —
this is foolishness and disgrace for him.
An offended brother is harder to reach[fn]
than a fortified city,
and quarrels are like the bars of a fortress.
From the fruit of a person’s mouth his stomach is satisfied;
he is filled with the product of his lips.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue,
and those who love it will eat its fruit.
