Proverbs 15:1-2

15A ^agentle answer turns away wrath,But a ^1,bharsh word stirs up anger.²The ^atongue of the wise makes knowledge look good,But the ^bmouth of ¹fools pours forth ²folly.

Proverbs 15:4

⁴A tongue that brings healing is a tree of life,But perversion in it breaks the spirit.

Proverbs 15:7

⁷The lips of the wise disperse knowledge,But the hearts of fools are not so.

Proverbs 15:23

²³A ^aman has gladness in an ¹apt answer,And how good is a timely ^bword!

Proverbs 15:26

²⁶Evil thoughts are an abomination to Yahweh,But pleasant words are pure.
