Proverbs 17:27


Proverbs 17:26 Proverbs 17:27 (KJV) Proverbs 17:28
Also to punish the just [is] not good, [nor] to strike princes for equity.
He that hath knowledge spareth his words: [and] a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.
Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: [and] he that shutteth his lips [is esteemed] a man of understanding.
