3 In the mouth of the foolish is a rod for his back,But (A)the lips of the wise will protect them.
3 The proud speech of a fool brings a rod of discipline,[a]but the lips of the wise protect them.(A)
25 A truthful witness saves lives,But one who (A)declares lies is [a]deceitful.
25 A truthful witness rescues lives,but one who utters lies is deceitful.(A)
