In context

1 Jawabu la upole huondoa ghadhabu, bali neno la ukatili huchochea hasira.

2 Ulimi wa watu mwenye hekima husifu maarifa, bali kinywa cha wapumbavu humwaga upuuzi.

3 Macho ya Yehova yapo kila mahali, yakiwatazama juu ya waovu na wema.

4 Ulimi unaoponya ni mti wa uzima, bali ulimi wa udanganyifu huvunja moyo.

5 Mpumbavu hudharau marudi ya baba yake, bali yeye anayejifunza kutokana na masahihisho ni mwenye hekima.

6 Katika nyumba ya wale watendao haki kuna hazina kubwa, bali mapato ya watu waovu huwapa taabu.

7 Midomo ya wenye hekima husambaza maarifa, bali mioyo ya wapumbavu haifanyi hivyo.
