20 There is a rebuke that is untimely, and there is the person who is wise enough to keep silent.(A)
5 If you would only keep silent, that would be your wisdom!(A)
19 When words are many, transgression is not lacking, but the prudent are restrained in speech.(A)
28 Even fools who keep silent are considered wise; when they close their lips, they are deemed intelligent.(A)
