Proverbs 18:6-8
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

6 A fool’s lips bring strife,
    and a fool’s mouth invites a flogging.
7 The mouths of fools are their ruin,
    and their lips a snare to themselves.
8 The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels;
    they go down into the inner parts of the body.
