Proverbs 12:16-18
Complete Jewish Bible

16 A fool’s anger is known at once,
    but a cautious person slighted conceals his feelings.
17 He who tells the truth furthers justice,
    but a false witness furthers deceit.

18 Idle talk can pierce like a sword,
    but the tongue of the wise can heal.
