20 Do you see someone who speaks in haste? There is more hope for a fool than for them.
20 Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
20 Observe the people who always talk before they think - even simpletons are better off than they are.
20 Do you see a man hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
20 There is more hope for a fool than for someone who speaks without thinking.
