Proverbs 15:1-5

A soft
<07390>

answer
<04617>

turneth
<07725> (8686)

away wrath
<02534>_:

but grievous
<06089>

words
<01697>

stir up
<05927> (8686)

anger
<0639>_.

The tongue
<03956>

of the wise
<02450>

useth knowledge
<01847>

aright
<03190> (8686)_:

but the mouth
<06310>

of fools
<03684>

poureth out
<05042> (8686)

foolishness
<0200>_.

{poureth: Heb. belcheth, or, bubbleth}

The eyes
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>

[are] in every place
<04725>_,

beholding
<06822> (8802)

the evil
<07451>

and the good
<02896>_.

A wholesome
<04832>

tongue
<03956>

[is] a tree
<06086>

of life
<02416>_:

but perverseness
<05558>

therein [is] a breach
<07667>

in the spirit
<07307>_.

{A wholesome...: Heb. The healing of the tongue}

A fool
<0191>

despiseth
<05006> (8799)

his father's
<01>

instruction
<04148>_:

but he that regardeth
<08104> (8802)

reproof
<08433>

is prudent
<06191> (8686)_.
