Proverbs 15:4-6
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

4 A peaceable tongue is a tree of life: but that which is immoderate, shall crush the spirit.

5 A fool laugheth at the instruction of his father: but he that regardeth reproofs shall become prudent. In abundant justice there is the greatest strength: but the devices of the wicked shall be rooted out.

6 The house of the just is very much strength: and in the fruits of the wicked is trouble.
