Proverbs 15:1-6 (New International Reader's Version)
View In My Bible
1
A gentle answer turns anger away. But mean words stir up anger.
2
The tongues of wise people use knowledge well. But the mouths of foolish people pour out foolish words.
3
The eyes of the LORD are everywhere. They watch those who are evil and those who are good.
4
A tongue that brings healing is like a tree of life. But a tongue that tells lies produces a broken spirit.
5
A foolish person turns his back on how his father has trained him. But anyone who accepts being corrected shows understanding.
6
The houses of those who do what is right hold great wealth. But those who do what is wrong earn only trouble.
