12 The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; But the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.

13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; And the end of his talk is grievous madness.

14 A fool also multiplieth words; Yet man knoweth not what shall be; And that which shall be after him, Who can tell him?
