American Standard Version
Proverbs 12:16-20
16A fool’s vexation is presently known;But a prudent man concealeth shame.17He that uttereth truth showeth forth righteousness;But a false witness, deceit.18There is that speaketh rashly like the piercings of a sword;But the tongue of the wise is health.19The lip of truth shall be established for ever;But a lying tongue is but for a moment.20Deceit is in the heart of them that devise evil;But to the counsellors of peace is joy.
