Proverbs 16:22-24
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
22 Wisdom is a fountain of life to one who has it,
but folly is the punishment of fools.(A)
23 The mind of the wise makes their speech judicious
and adds persuasiveness to their lips.
24 Pleasant words are like a honeycomb,
sweetness to the soul and health to the body.
