Proverbs 12:18-20
Complete Jewish Bible
18 Idle talk can pierce like a sword,
but the tongue of the wise can heal.
19 Truthful words will stand forever,
lying speech but a moment.
20 Deceit is in the hearts of those who plot evil,
but for those advising peace there is joy.

but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.

but those who promote peace have joy.(C)
