New King James Version
Proverbs 20:14-19
14“It is good for nothing,” cries the buyer; But when he has gone his way, then he boasts.
15There is gold and a multitude of rubies, But the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
16Take the garment of one who is surety for a stranger, And hold it as a pledge when it is for a seductress.
17Bread gained by deceit is sweet to a man, But afterward his mouth will be filled with gravel.
18Plans are established by counsel; By wise counsel wage war.
19He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets; Therefore do not associate with one who flatters with his lips.
