The lips of fools bring them strife, and their mouths invite a beating.

What foolish people say leads to arguing. They are just asking for a beating.

Fools’ words get them into constant quarrels; they are asking for a beating.

A fool’s lips lead to strife, and his mouth provokes a beating.

A fool’s lips bring strife, And his mouth invites beatings.

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

A fool’s lips enter into contention, And his mouth calleth for stripes.

A fool’s lips lead to strife, and his mouth provokes a beating.

A fool’s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.

The lips of a fool enter into strife, and his mouth invites a flogging.

A fool’s lips come into strife, and his mouth invites beatings.

A stone is heavy, and sand is weighty, but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.

A worthless man plots evil, and his speech is like a scorching fire.A dishonest man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends.

It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife, but every fool will be quarreling.

If a wise man has an argument with a fool, the fool only rages and laughs, and there is no quiet.

It is better to live in a corner of the housetop than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.

The vexation of a fool is known at once, but the prudent ignores an insult.

By the mouth of a fool comes a rod for his back, but the lips of the wise will preserve them.

By insolence comes nothing but strife, but with those who take advice is wisdom.

The beginning of strife is like letting out water, so quit before the quarrel breaks out.

One who is wise is cautious and turns away from evil, but a fool is reckless and careless.

Make no friendship with a man given to anger, nor go with a wrathful man,lest you learn his ways and entangle yourself in a snare.

A man of great wrath will pay the penalty, for if you deliver him, you will only have to do it again.

Condemnation is ready for scoffers, and beating for the backs of fools.
