9 Whoever carves out stones may be injured by them. Whoever splits wood may be endangered thereby.
10 If the ax is blunt, and one doesn`t sharpen the edge, then he must use more strength; but skill brings success.
11 If the snake bites before it is charmed, then is there no profit for the charmer`s tongue.
12 The words of a wise man`s mouth are gracious; but a fool is swallowed by his own lips.
13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness; and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.
14 A fool also multiplies words. Man doesn`t know what will be; and that which will be after him, who can tell him?
15 The labor of fools wearies every one of them; for he doesn`t know how to go to the city.
