The wise in heart shall be called prudent.
Pleasantness of the lips promotes instruction.
The wise in heart shall be called prudent.
Pleasantness of the lips promotes instruction.
Proverbs 16:18–24
Pride goes before destruction,
and an arrogant spirit before a fall.
It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor,
than to divide the plunder with the proud.
He who heeds the Word finds prosperity.
Whoever trusts in the LORD is blessed.
The wise in heart shall be called prudent.
Pleasantness of the lips promotes instruction.
Understanding is a fountain of life to one who has it,
but the punishment of fools is their folly.
The heart of the wise instructs his mouth,
and adds learning to his lips.
Pleasant words are a honeycomb,
sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
