Proverbs 12:23-25
International Standard Version
23 A prudent man keeps what he knows to himself,[a]
but the hearts of fools shout forth their foolishness.
24 The diligent will take control,
but the lazy will be put to forced labor.
25 A person’s anxiety weighs down his heart,
but an appropriate word is encouraging.
