Proverbs 12:16-20

16A fool’sH191 vexation is presently knownH3045: but a prudentH6175 manH6175 concealeth shameH7036.

17He that uttereth truthH530 sheweth forth righteousnessH6664, but a falseH8267 witnessH5707 deceitH4820.

18There is that speaketh rashlyH981 like the piercings of a swordH2719: but the tongueH3956 of the wiseH2450 is healthH4832.

19The lipH8193 of truthH571 shall be establishedH3559 for everH5703: but a lyingH8267 tongueH3956 is but for a moment.

20DeceitH4820 is in the heartH3820 of them that devise evilH7451: but to the counsellors of peaceH7965 is joyH8057.
