Proverbs 12:15-19

15The way of fools seems right to them, but the wise listen to advice.

16Fools show their annoyance at once, but the prudent overlook an insult.

17An honest witness tells the truth, but a false witness tells lies.

18The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

19Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.
