bbut whoever restrains his lips is prudent.

12 The words of a wise man’s mouth cwin him favor,
Or are gracious

but ethe lips of a fool consume him.
13The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness,
and the end of his talk is evil madness.
14 fA fool multiplies words,
though no man knows what is to be,
and who can tell him gwhat will be after him?
