Proverbs 12:17-19
New Living Translation
17 An honest witness tells the truth;
a false witness tells lies.
18 Some people make cutting remarks,
but the words of the wise bring healing.
19 Truthful words stand the test of time,
but lies are soon exposed.
Proverbs 12:17-19
New International Version
17 An honest witness tells the truth,
but a false witness tells lies.(A)
19 Truthful lips endure forever,
but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.
