Proverbs 12:16
Berean Standard Bible
A fool’s anger is known at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult.
Context
14By fruitful speech a man is filled with good things,
and the work of his hands returns to him. 15The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
but a wise man listens to counsel. 16A fool’s anger is known at once,
but a prudent man overlooks an insult. 17He who speaks the truth declares what is right,
but a false witness speaks deceit. 18Speaking rashly is like a piercing sword,
but the tongue of the wise brings healing.
