Proverbs 16:21-24

21The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.

22Understandingis a wellspring of life to him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly.

23The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips.1

24Pleasant wordsare as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
