Proverbs 12:16

Julia E. Smith Translation 1876

The foolish one in the day shall make known his anger: but the prudent one covered dishonor.

See the chapter Copy

The foolish one will bring forth all his spirit; and the wise one will restrain it back.

Wherefore, my dearly beloved brethren, let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger:

Hatred will excite strifes: and love will cover over all transgressions.

He covering transgression seeks love; and he perverting in the word, separates a, friend.

A city being broken down, and not a wall, a man who restrains not to his spirit.

The understanding of him possessing it is a fountain of life: and the instruction of the foolish is folly.

In the heart of him understanding, wisdom shall rest: and in the midst of fools it shall be made known.

For to the foolish, and anger will slay, and the simple will jealousy kill.

He breathing out faithfulness will announce justice: and a witness of falsehoods, deceit

A stone is heavy and sand a burden, and the wrath of the foolish one heavy more than they two.
