Proverbs29:20

20 Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words ? there is more hope of a fool , than of him .

Or rather, in his Business, who is rash and heady in the management of his affairs.

Who is sensible of his folly, and willing to hearken to the advice of others, as this word is used▪ Ch. 26. 12. though commonly it be meant of a wilful and wicked fool.

Because he is self confident, and neither considers things seriously within himself, nor seeks counsel from the wise.

Marginal references: Or, [illegible: 1 word] [illegible: 1 word] matters.
