Proverbs 15

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 15 of 31

1 A soft answer turns back wrath, but a word of pain causes anger to go up.

2 The tongue of the wise makes glad knowledge, but the mouth of fools pours out foolishness.

3 The eyes of Jehovah are in every place watching the evil ones and the good ones.

4 A healing tongue is a tree of life, but perversity in it is a break of the spirit.
