Ecclesiastes 10:12-14

Lexham English Bible

¹² The wise man wins favor by the words of his mouth,
    but the fool is devoured by his own lips.
¹³ He begins by saying what is foolish
    and ends by uttering what is wicked delusion.
¹⁴ The fool talks too much,^[a]
    for no one knows what will be.
        Who can tell anyone what will happen in the future?^[b]
