Proverbs 12:16-18

World English Bible

¹⁶ A fool shows his annoyance the same day,
    but one who overlooks an insult is prudent.
¹⁷ He who is truthful testifies honestly,
    but a false witness lies.
¹⁸ There is one who speaks rashly like the piercing of a sword,
    but the tongue of the wise heals.
