A fool's vexation is presently known; But a prudent man concealeth shame.
A prudent man concealeth knowledge; But the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.
A soft answer turneth away wrath; But a grievous word stirreth up anger.
The tongue of the wise uttereth knowledge aright; But the mouth of fools poureth out folly.
The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger; And it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
He whose spirit is without restraint Is (like) a city that is broken down and without walls.
