Berean Standard Bible

Even a fool is considered wise if he keeps silent, and discerning when he holds his tongue.

Context

26It is surely not good to punish the innocent or to flog a noble for his honesty. 27A man of knowledge restrains his words, and a man of understanding maintains a calm spirit. 28Even a fool is considered wise if he keeps silent, and discerning when he holds his tongue.
