Colossians 4:6

New Living Translation

⁶Let your conversation be gracious and attractive^[a] so that you will have the right response for everyone.

15 A gentle answer^(A) turns away wrath,^(B)
but a harsh word stirs up anger.

²The tongue of the wise adorns knowledge,^(C)
but the mouth of the fool gushes folly.^(D)

15 A gentle answer deflects anger,
but harsh words make tempers flare.

²The tongue of the wise makes knowledge appealing,
but the mouth of a fool belches out foolishness.
