Thoughtless words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal.

What a joy it is to find just the right word for the right occasion!

The LORD hates evil thoughts, but he is pleased with friendly words.

I will be proud when I hear you speaking words of wisdom.

An idea well-expressed is like a design of gold, set in silver.

A warning given by an experienced person to someone willing to listen is more valuable than gold rings or jewelry made of the finest gold.

Perfume and fragrant oils make you feel happier, but trouble shatters your peace of mind.

My teaching will fall like drops of rain and form on the earth like dew. My words will fall like showers on young plants, like gentle rain on tender grass.

The taste of honey is on your lips, my darling; your tongue is milk and honey for me. Your clothing has all the fragrance of Lebanon.

It was late that Sunday evening, and the disciples were gathered together behind locked doors, because they were afraid of the Jewish authorities. Then Jesus came and stood among them. "Peace be with you," he said.

Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father sent me, so I send you."

My child, eat honey; it is good. And just as honey from the comb is sweet on your tongue,

you may be sure that wisdom is good for the soul. Get wisdom and you have a bright future.

They are more desirable than the finest gold; they are sweeter than the purest honey.

How sweet is the taste of your instructions--- sweeter even than honey!

You spoke to me, and I listened to every word. I belong to you, LORD God Almighty, and so your words filled my heart with joy and happiness.

If you do, it will be like good medicine, healing your wounds and easing your pains.

They will give life and health to anyone who understands them.
