Proverbs 18:1-10

1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.
2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, unless his heart may discover itself.
3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt; and with ignominy, reproach.
4 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
6 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for blows.
7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
9 He that is slothful in his work is a brother to him that is a great waster.
10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous runneth into it and is safe.
