Proverbs 12:18-20

Wycliffe Bible

¹⁸ A man is that promiseth, and he is pricked as with the sword of conscience; but the tongue of wise men is health. (There is a person who speaketh, and his words cut like a sword; but the tongues of the wise give health.)

¹⁹ The lip of truth shall be steadfast [into] without end; but he that is a sudden witness, maketh ready the tongue of leasing (but he who speaketh a ready answer, often haveth a lying tongue).

²⁰ Guile is in the heart of them that think evils; but joy followeth them that make counsels of peace.
