NETBible

The mouth of a fool is his ruin, and his lips are a snare for his life.¹

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “his soul” (so KJV, NASB, NIV).

¹sn What a fool says can ruin him. Calamity and misfortune can come to a person who makes known his lack of wisdom by what he says. It may be that his words incite anger, or merely reveal stupidity; in either case, he is in trouble.
