Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.
El habla elocuente no le queda bien al necio, y mucho menos los labios mentirosos al gobernante.
Ni los necios deben hablar con elegancia ni los líderes deben mentir.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In ancient Israel, the Book of Proverbs was part of the Wisdom Literature, attributed largely to King Solomon, and it served as a guide for ethical living and decision-making in everyday life. This verse reflects the cultural value placed on integrity and appropriate speech, warning that eloquent words do not suit a fool and that lies are even more unbecoming for a leader, as it underscores the expectations for truthfulness in positions of authority. Such sayings were meant to instruct people on how to navigate social and moral challenges wisely.
