Proverbs 16:21-24

JPS_ASV_Byz(i) 21 The wise in heart is called a man of discernment; and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning. 22 Understanding is a fountain of life unto him that hath it; but folly is the chastisement of fools. 23 The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips. 24 Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
