4 The words of the mouth are deep waters, but the fountain of wisdom is a rushing stream.
4 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
4 The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook.
4 Many words rush along like rivers in flood, but deep wisdom flows up from artesian springs.
4 The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; The wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook.
4 Wise words are like deep waters; wisdom flows from the wise like a bubbling brook.
