Proverbs 16:21-25

The wise in heart will be called understanding, And sweetness of speech increases persuasiveness.

Understanding is a fountain of life to those who have it, But the discipline of fools is foolishness.

The heart of the wise instructs his mouth And adds persuasiveness to his lips.

Pleasant words are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.

There is a way which seems right to a person, But its end is the way of death.
