Proverbios 17

He that holdeth back his speeches hath knowledge; and he that is sparing of his spirit is a man of understanding.

Detiene sus dichos el que tiene sabiduría: de prudente espíritu es el hombre entendido.

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

He who spares his words has knowledge. He who is even tempered is a man of understanding.
