Proverbs 15:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² When wise people speak, they show that knowledge is good.
    But when fools speak, they only say foolish things.
³ The Lord sees what happens everywhere.
    He is watching what evil people do, and good people too.
⁴ Kind words are like the fruit of a tree that gives life.
    But words that are not honest make people sad and weak.
