Proverbs 18:7
King James VersionSource notes
“A fool’s mouth his destruction, and his lips the snare of his soul.”
Context
4The words of a man’s mouth deep waters, the wellspring of wisdom a flowing brook.
5not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
6A fool’s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
7A fool’s mouth his destruction, and his lips the snare of his soul.
8The words of a talebearer as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
9He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
10The name of the LORD a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
