Proverbs 12:17 - John Wesley's Notes

Proverbs 12:17

Compare all

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

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

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

18 ^aThere 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,
^aBut a lying tongue is but for a moment.
