Mishle 12:16-18

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁶ A fool’s wrath is known immediately, but a prudent man covereth kalon (shame, disgrace, shameful nakedness).

¹⁷ He that speaketh emunah declareth tzedek, but an ed shekarim, mirmah.

¹⁸ There is one who speaketh rash words like the wounding of a cherev, but the lashon of the chachamim promotes marpeh (healing).
