1A soft answer turneth away wrath: But grievous words stir up anger.
2The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: But the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.
3The eyes of the Lord are in every place, Beholding the evil and the good.
4A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: But perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
5A fool despiseth his father’s instruction: But he that regardeth reproof is prudent.
6In the house of the righteous is much treasure: But in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.
