Proverbs 12:16-21

¹⁶A fool showeth anon his ire; but he that dissembleth wrongs, is wise.

¹⁷He that speaketh that, that he knoweth, is a judge of rightfulness or of rightwiseness; but he that lieth, is a guileful witness.

¹⁸A man is that promiseth, and he is pricked as with the sword of conscience; but the tongue of wise men is health.

¹⁹The lip of truth shall be steadfast without end; but he that is a sudden witness, maketh ready the tongue of leasing.

²⁰Guile is in the heart of them that think evils; but joy pursueth or followeth them that make counsels of peace.

²¹Whatever befalleth to a just or rightwise man, it shall not make him sorry or sorrow; but wicked men shall be filled with evil.
