Proverbs 12:16-20

16A fool’s wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame.1

17He thatspeaketh truth showeth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.

18There is that speaketh 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.

20Deceitis in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.
