Whoever gives thought to the Word,
Shall find trust and discover good;
Happiness to what has been heard,
Trusting the Lord just as you should.

The wise heart shall be called prudent,
Sweetness of lips increase learning;
Persuasiveness as a student,
In the knowledge you are earning.

Good sense is a fountain of life,
But teaching of fools is folly;
In which would be causing them strife,
As their mood turns melancholy.

The heart of wise will make his speech,
Persuasive learning from the lips;
That will echo through the outreach,
Like the coffee with gentle sips.

Gracious words are like honeycomb,
Sweetness yet healthy to the soul;
Keeping you from trying to roam,
Lets the Holy Spirit control.

There is a way that does seem right,
But its end is the way to death;
It is not if you see the light,
After taking of your last breath.

The appetite of a doer,
Works if the mouth will urge onward.
Desires of a pursuer,
Of everything that is heard.

An ungodly man plots evil,
Speech is like a scorching fire;
That coincides with the devil,
As wickedness would desire.

A dishonest man will spread strife,
A whisperer separates friends;
Hate and discontent through their life,
The thought of each other offends.

Fury entices a neighbor,
That will lead into violence;
Causing him to use his saber,
That will establish turbulence.
