16A fool’s wrath is presently known: But a prudent man covereth shame.
17He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: But a false witness deceit.
18There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: But the tongue of the wise is health.
19The lip of truth shall be established for ever: But a lying tongue is but for a moment.
20Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: But to the counsellers of peace is joy.
21There shall no evil happen to the just: But the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
22Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: But they that deal truly are his delight.
