SEV Biblia, Chapter 18:6
¶ Los labios del loco vienen con pleito; y su boca a plaga llama.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 6. A fool’s lips enter into contention , etc.] That is, between others, when he has nothing to do with it; but he must be meddling, and make himself a party in the contention, which is an argument of his folly; he says things which occasion disputes, raise contentions among men, and provoke to wrath and anger. The Septuagint version is, “the lips of a fool lead him to evils”: for, as they lead him to contention and strife, the issue of that is confusion and every evil work; and his mouth calleth for strokes : as he stirs up and encourages contention, so he proceeds to blows, and excites others to them; from words he goes to blows, and, by the ill and provoking language of his mouth, gets many a blow to himself. Jarchi seems to understand it of chastisement, from the hand of God; (see Proverbs 26:3).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 6, 7 - What mischief bad men do to themselves by their ungoverned tongues!
