Proverbs 15:1-7, 18

A (Prov. 25:15) soft answer turns away wrath,

But (1 Sam. 25:10) a harsh word stirs up anger.

2 The tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly,

( Prov. 12:23) But the mouth of fools pours forth foolishness.

3 (2 Chr. 16:9; Job 34:21; Prov. 5:21; Jer. 16:17; 32:19; Zech. 4:10; Heb. 4:13) The eyes of the Lord are in every place,

Keeping watch on the evil and the good.

4 A ( Lit. healing) wholesome tongue is a tree of life,

But perverseness in it breaks the spirit.

5 (Prov. 10:1) A fool despises his father’s instruction,

(Prov. 13:18) But he who (Lit. keeps) receives correction is prudent.

6 In the house of the righteous there is much treasure,

But in the revenue of the wicked is trouble.

7 The lips of the wise ( spread) disperse knowledge,

But the heart of the fool does not do so

18 (Prov. 26:21) A wrathful man stirs up strife,

But he who is slow to anger allays contention.
