Proverbs 18 (résumé): An unfriendly man pursues selfish ends

Solomon's wisdom sayings continue in Proverbs 18: A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own opinions... the words of a gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to a man's inmost parts... one who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys... the name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe... don't answer before listening... a man's spirit sustains him in sickness... a gift opens the way for the giver... the tongue has the power of life and death... he who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favour from the Lord... there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
