Proverbs 17:28

God's Word

Even a stubborn fool is thought to be wise if he keeps silent. He is considered intelligent if he keeps his lips sealed.

See the chapter Copy

I wish you would keep silent. For you, that would be wisdom.

Should I wait because they don’t speak, because they stand there and don’t have any more answers?

The tongues of wise people give good expression to knowledge, but the mouths of fools pour out a flood of stupidity.

A loner is out to get what he wants for himself. He opposes all sound reasoning.

He never stops talking. No one knows what the future will bring, or what will happen after ⌞death⌟. Who can say!

Even when a fool goes walking, he has no sense and shows everyone else that he’s a fool.

Daydreaming comes when there are too many worries. Careless speaking comes when there are too many words.
