In context

12 The wicked hath desired the net of evil doers, And the root of the righteous giveth.

13 In transgression of the lips is the snare of the wicked, And the righteous goeth out from distress.

14 From the fruit of the mouth is one satisfied with good, And the deed of man's hands returneth to him.

15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, And whoso is hearkening to counsel is wise.

16 The fool--in a day is his anger known, And the prudent is covering shame.

17 Whoso uttereth faithfulness declareth righteousness, And a false witness--deceit.

18 A rash speaker is like piercings of a sword, And the tongue of the wise is healing.
