- 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.
Bible verse of the day
But he was pierced for our transgressions,he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
