Proverbs 29:11 Context
9If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether hee rage or laugh, there is no rest. 10The bloodthirstie hate the vpright: but the iust seeke his soule. 11A foole vttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards. 12If a ruler hearken to lies, all his seruants are wicked. 13The poore and the deceitful man meet together: the Lord lightneth both their eyes.
