Proverbs 16:23-25

GOD’S WORD Translation

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.

²⁵ There is a way that seems right to a person,
but eventually it ends in death.
