Proverbs 24:26

American King James Version (1999)

Every man shall kiss his lips that gives a right answer.

See the chapter Copy

How forcible are right words! but what does your arguing reprove?

A man has joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!

The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD.

But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come on them.

Prepare your work without, and make it fit for yourself in the field; and afterwards build your house.
