New King James Version

Proverbs 18:2-6 New King James Version (NKJV)

2. A fool has no delight in understanding,But in expressing his own heart.

3. When the wicked comes, contempt comes also;And with dishonor comes reproach.

4. The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters;The wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook.

5. It is not good to show partiality to the wicked,Or to overthrow the righteous in judgment.

6. A fool’s lips enter into contention,And his mouth calls for blows.
