Proverbs 16:20-24
20He that giveth heed unto the word shall find good;And whoso trusteth in Jehovah, happy is he.21The wise in heart shall be called prudent;And the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.22Understanding is a well-spring of life unto him that hath it;But the correction of fools istheirfolly.23The heart of the wise instructeth his mouth,And addeth learning to his lips.24Pleasant words areas a honeycomb,Sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
