Proverbs 16:22-24

GOD’S WORD Translation

²² Understanding is a fountain of life to the one who has it,
but stubborn fools punish themselves with their stupidity.
²³ A wise person’s heart controls his speech,
and what he says helps others learn.
²⁴ Pleasant words are ⌞like⌟ honey from a honeycomb—
sweet to the spirit and healthy for the body.
