the lips of a dullard, enter into contention, and his mouth, for blows, crieth out.

A foolish man, on the same day, letteth his vexation be known, but, he that concealeth an affront, is prudent.

Only by pride, doth one cause contention, but, with the well-advised, is wisdom.

In the mouth of the foolish, is a haughty rod, but, as for the lips of the wise, thou shalt give heed to them!

A wise man, feareth, and avoideth evil, but, a dullard, is haughty and confident.

An abandoned man, diggeth up mischief, - and, upon his lips, as it were a fire is scorching.

A letting forth of water, is the beginning of strife, therefore, before it breaketh out, abandon, contention.

A man in a rage, taketh away the penalty, - nevertheless, if thou let him go free, the more stripes must thou add.

Prepared for scoffers, are punishments, and stripes, for the back of dullards.

Honour, hath the man who sitteth away from strife, but, any fool, may break through.

Do not have friendship with one given to anger, and, with a wrathful man, shall thou not enter in:

Heavy is a stone, and weighty is sand, - but, the vexation of a fool, is heavier than both.

A wise man pleading with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there is no settlement.
