- A gentle reply turns away wrath,
but a harsh word arouses anger. - A wholesome tongue is a tree of life,
but an undisciplined tongue crushes the spirit. - A fool spurns his father’s correction,
but whoever heeds admonition is prudent. - It is better to have a little and fear the Lord
than to possess immense wealth and suffer anguish. - Plans miscarry when counsel is lacking,
but they succeed when there are many counselors. - A man is joyful when he utters apt answers,
and even more satisfying is a word in season. - The fear of the Lord provides instruction in wisdom,
and to be humble is the way to honor.
