11
The conversation of the godly is always wise, but the fool changes like the moon.
12
Among stupid people limit your time, but among thoughtful people linger on.
13
The talk of fools is offensive, and their laughter is wantonly sinful.
14
Their cursing and swearing make one's hair stand on end, and their quarrels make others stop their ears.
15
The strife of the proud leads to bloodshed, and their abuse is grievous to hear.
