Proverbios 17

He that forbears to utter a hard word is discreet, and a patient man is wise.

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.
