Proverbs 20:14-19

14It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.

15There is gold, and abundance of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.

16Take his garment that is surety for a stranger; and hold him in pledge that is surety for strangers.

17Bread of falsehood is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.

18Every purpose is established by counsel: and by wise guidance make thou war,

19He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that openeth wide his lips.
