Proverbs 16:21-24

21The wise in heart is called discerning, and sweetness of lips increases persuasiveness.

22Insight is a fountain of life to one who has it, but folly leads to the discipline of fools.

23A wise man’s heart teaches his mouth and adds persuasiveness to his lips.

24Pleasant words are honeycomb— sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.
