13 The evil person is ensnared by the transgression of his speech,but the righteous person escapes out of trouble.
14 A person will be satisfied with good from the fruit of his words, and the work of his hands will be rendered to him.
15 The way of a fool is right in his own opinion,but the one who listens to advice is wise.
16 A fool’s annoyance is known at once,but the prudent overlooks an insult.
17 The faithful witness tells what is right,but a false witness speaks deceit.
18 Speaking recklessly is like the thrusts of a sword,but the words of the wise bring healing.
19 The one who tells the truth will endure forever,but the one who lies will last only for a moment.
