12 The words of a wise person are gracious. The talk of a fool self-destructs -

12 Words from the mouth of the wise are gracious, but fools are consumed by their own lips.

13 He starts out talking nonsense And ends up spouting insanity and evil.

13 At the beginning their words are folly; at the end they are wicked madness—

14 Fools talk way too much, Chattering stuff they know nothing about.

14 and fools multiply words. No one knows what is coming— who can tell someone else what will happen after them?

15 A decent day's work so fatigues fools That they can't find their way back to town.

15 The toil of fools wearies them; they do not know the way to town.
