A fool shows his annoyance the same day,
but one who overlooks an insult is prudent.
A fool shows his annoyance the same day,
but one who overlooks an insult is prudent.
Proverbs 12:13–19
An evil man is trapped by sinfulness of lips,
but the righteous shall come out of trouble.
A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth.
The work of a man’s hands shall be rewarded to him.
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
but he who is wise listens to counsel.
A fool shows his annoyance the same day,
but one who overlooks an insult is prudent.
He who is truthful testifies honestly,
but a false witness lies.
There is one who speaks rashly like the piercing of a sword,
but the tongue of the wise heals.
Truth’s lips will be established forever,
but a lying tongue is only momentary.
