1 1A soft answer turns away wrath, but 2a harsh word stirs up anger.
2 The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but 3the mouths of fools pour out folly.
3 4The eyes of the LORD are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.
4 5A gentlea tongue is 6a tree of life, but 7perverseness in it breaks the spirit.
5 8A fool 9despises his father's instruction, but 10whoever heeds reproof is prudent.
6 In the house of the righteous there is much treasure, but trouble befalls the income of the wicked.
7 11The lips of the wise spread knowledge; 12not so the hearts of fools.b
8 13The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but 14the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him.
9 The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but he loves him 15who pursues righteousness.
10 There is 16severe discipline for him who forsakes the way; 17whoever hates reproof will die.
11 Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the LORD; how much more 18the hearts of the children of man!
12 19A scoffer 20does not like to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.
13 21A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but by 22sorrow of heart the spirit is 23crushed.
14 24The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.
15 All the days of the afflicted are evil, but 25the cheerful of heart has a continual feast.
