A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from Yahweh.

He who gives answer before he hears, that is folly and shame to him.

The poor plead for mercy, but the rich answer harshly.

An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.

Don't answer a fool according to his folly, lest you also be like him.

Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes.

The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who answer with discretion.

Be wise, my son, and bring joy to my heart, then I can answer my tormentor.
