Proverbs 15:1-5 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

1. A soft answer turneth away fury; but a grievous word stirreth up anger.

2. The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright; but the mouth of the foolish poureth out folly.

3. The eyes of Jehovah are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.

4. Gentleness of tongue is a tree of life; but crookedness therein is a breaking of the spirit.

5. A fool despiseth his father's instruction; but he that regardeth reproof becometh prudent.
