Proverbs 12:14-19 New King James Version (NKJV)

14. A man will be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth,And the recompense of a man’s hands will be rendered to him.

15. The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,But he who heeds counsel is wise.

16. A fool’s wrath is known at once,But a prudent man covers shame.

17. He who speaks truth declares righteousness,But a false witness, deceit.

18. There is one who speaks like the piercings of a sword,But the tongue of the wise promotes health.

19. The truthful lip shall be established forever,But a lying tongue is but for a moment.
