Ecclesiastes 10:1-3

A wise man's heart is at his right hand, but a fool's heart at his left.

Yes also, when the fool walks by the way, his understanding fails him, and he says to everyone that he is a fool.

Ecclesiastes 10:12-15

The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but a fool is swallowed by his own lips.
13
The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.
14
A fool also multiplies words. Man doesn't know what will be; and that which will be after him, who can tell him?
15
The labor of fools wearies every one of them; for he doesn't know how to go to the city.
