- A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger. - The soothing tongue is a tree of life,
but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit. - A fool spurns a parent’s discipline,
but whoever heeds correction shows prudence. - Better a little with the fear of the Lord
than great wealth with turmoil. - Plans fail for lack of counsel,
but with many advisers they succeed. - A person finds joy in giving an apt reply—
and how good is a timely word! - Wisdom’s instruction is to fear the Lord,
and humility comes before honor.
For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.Next verse!With image
