Proverbs 29:9-11
GOD’S WORD Translation
9 When a wise person goes to court with a stubborn fool,
he may rant and rave,
but there is no peace and quiet.
10 Bloodthirsty people hate an innocent person,
but decent people seek ⌞to protect⌟ his life.
11 A fool expresses all his emotions,
but a wise person controls them.
Proverbs 29:9-11

the fool rages and scoffs, and there is no peace.

and seek to kill the upright.(A)
