- A gentle answer deflects anger,
but harsh words make tempers flare. - Gentle words are a tree of life;
a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit. - Only a fool despises a parent’s discipline;
whoever learns from correction is wise. - Better to have little, with fear for the Lord,
than to have great treasure and inner turmoil. - Plans go wrong for lack of advice;
many advisers bring success. - Everyone enjoys a fitting reply;
it is wonderful to say the right thing at the right time! - Fear of the Lord teaches wisdom;
humility precedes honor.
