Proverbs 15:1-5 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. A gentle answer will calm a person’s anger.But an unkind answer will cause more anger.

2. Wise people use knowledge when they speak.But fools speak only foolishness.

3. The Lord’s eyes see everything that happens.He watches both evil and good people.

4. As a tree gives us fruit, healing words give us life.But evil words crush the spirit.

5. A foolish person rejects his father’s correction.But anyone who accepts correction is wise.
