Wisdom and the Discipline of Speech
Proverbs 10:8-14
8
The wise of heart receiveth precepts: a fool is beaten with lips.
9
He that walketh sincerely, walketh confidently: but he that perverteth his ways, shall be manifest.
10
He that winketh with the eye, shall cause sorrow: and the foolish in lips shall be beaten.
11
The mouth of the just is a vein of life: and the mouth of the wicked covereth iniquity.
12
Hatred stirreth up strifes: and charity covereth all sins.
13
In the lips of the wise is wisdom found: and a rod on the back of him that wanteth sense.
14
Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the fool is next to confusion.
