Proverbs 10:12

Proverbs Concerning The Mouth

¹¹ The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,
but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence. ¹² Hatred stirs up conflicts,
but love covers all offenses. ¹³ Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning,
but a rod is for the back of the one who lacks sense.
