- A soft answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger. - A gentle tongue is a tree of life,
but perverseness in it breaks the spirit. - A fool despises a parent's instruction,
but the one who heeds admonition is prudent. - Better is a little with the fear of the Lord
than great treasure and trouble with it. - Without counsel, plans go wrong,
but with many advisers they succeed. - To make an apt answer is a joy to anyone,
and a word in season, how good it is! - The fear of the Lord is instruction in wisdom,
and humility goes before honor.
