1He that separateth himself seeketh his own desire, And rageth against all sound wisdom.

2A fool hath no delight in understanding, But only that his heart may reveal itself.

3When the wicked cometh, there cometh also contempt, And with ignominy cometh reproach.

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

5To respect the person of the wicked is not good, Norto turn aside the righteous in judgment.
