“The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters; The wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook. As in water face reflects face, So a man’s heart reveals the man. He who has knowledge spares his words, And a man of understanding is of a calm spirit.” ‭‭{Proverbs‬ ‭18‬:‭4‬; ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭27‬:‭19‬; Proverbs‬ ‭17‬:‭27‬}

“A man shall eat well by the fruit of his mouth, But the soul of the unfaithful feeds on violence. 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. He who guards his mouth preserves his life, But he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction. He who speaks truth declares righteousness, But a false witness, deceit.

And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.

“To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to tear, And a time to sew; A time to keep silence, And a time to speak. He who corrects a scoffer gets shame for himself, And he who rebukes a wicked man only harms himself. Do not correct a scoffer, lest he hate you; Rebuke a wise man, and he will love you. Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; Teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. Do not give what is holy to the dogs;...
