Proverbs 15:4-6

New Life Version

⁴ A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but a sinful tongue crushes the spirit.

⁵ A fool turns away from the strong teaching of his father, but he who remembers the strong words spoken to him is wise.

⁶ Great riches are in the house of those who are right with God, but trouble is what the sinful will receive.
