The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall.
Proverbs 10:8 — KJV
A prating fool. Literally, "a fool of lips." The wise man controls his speech and is willing to listen to instruction and to accept direction. The fool talks idly, boasting of his own deeds and speaking evil of others. Since he is too busy talking to listen to counsel, he will fall, and come to ruin.
