Proverbs
Chapters 15:1-6
New International Version Anglicized
1A gentle answer turns away wrath,but a harsh word stirs up anger.
2The tongue of the wise adorns knowledge,but the mouth of the fool gushes folly.
3The eyes of the Lord are everywhere,keeping watch on the wicked and the good.
4The soothing tongue is a tree of life,but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit.
5A fool spurns a parent’s discipline,but whoever heeds correction shows prudence.
6The house of the righteous contains great treasure,but the income of the wicked brings ruin.
