Proverbs

The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.

A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!

Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.

The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.
