Proverbs 17:28 WBT

²⁶  Also to punish the just [is] not good, [nor] to strike princes for equity.

²⁷  He that hath knowledge spareth his words: [and] a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.

²⁸  Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: [and] he that shutteth his lips [is esteemed] a man of understanding.
