Proverbs 18:1-6

1 Unfriendly people are selfish and hate all good sense.

2 Fools do not want to understand anything. They only want to tell others what they think.

3 Do something evil, and people won't like you. Do something shameful, and they will make fun of you.

4 Spoken words can be like deep water, but wisdom is like a flowing stream.

5 It is not good to honor the wicked or to be unfair to the innocent.

6 The words of fools start quarrels. They make people want to beat them.
