Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.
Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool, Much less are lying lips to a prince.
Fine speech is not becoming to a fool; still less is false speech to a prince.
Eloquent lips are unsuited to a godless fool — how much worse lying lips to a ruler!
Excellent speech is not becoming to a fool, Much less lying lips to a prince.
Eloquent words are not fitting for a fool; even less are lies fitting for a ruler.
Excellent speech becometh not a vile [man]; how much less do lying lips a noble!
