The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is a rushing stream.
In context
2A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, only in airing his own heart. 3When the wicked comes, contempt comes too, and with dishonor, disgrace. 4The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is a rushing stream. 5It is not good to favor the guilty and push the innocent aside in judgment. 6A fool’s lips walk into a quarrel, and his mouth calls for a beating.
