Proverbs 20:14-19

14“It’s no good, it’s no good!” says the buyer— then goes off and boasts about the purchase.

15Gold there is, and rubies in abundance, but lips that speak knowledge are a rare jewel.

16Take the garment of one who puts up security for a stranger; hold it in pledge if it is done for an outsider.

17Food gained by fraud tastes sweet, but one ends up with a mouth full of gravel.

18Plans are established by seeking advice; so if you wage war, obtain guidance.

19A gossip betrays a confidence; so avoid anyone who talks too much.
