The one who gives an answer before he listens—this is foolishness and disgrace for him.

The poor may speak entreaties, but the rich will answer roughly.

He whose ears are stopped at the cry of the poor, will himself get no answer to his cry for help.

That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee?

Every man shall kiss his lips that giveth a right answer.

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.

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

My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.

A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer.
