Proverbs 12:17

He who speaks truth declares righteousness,
But a false witness, deceit.

Winston Churchill
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.

Proverbs 12:18

There is one who speaks like the piercings of a sword,
But the tongue of the wise promotes health.

Proverbs 12:19

The truthful lip shall be established forever,
But a lying tongue is but for a moment.

Proverbs 12:20-22

Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,
But counselors of peace have joy.
No grave trouble will overtake the righteous,
But the wicked shall be filled with evil.
Lying lips are an abomination to the LORD,
But those who deal truthfully are His delight.

Paul House: Old Testament Theology

But the heart of fools proclaims foolishness

Proverbs 12:24

The hand of the diligent will rule,
But the lazy man will be put to forced labor.

Proverbs 12:25

Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression,
But a good word makes it glad.

Proverbs 12:26

The righteous should choose his friends carefully,
For the way of the wicked leads them astray.

Proverbs 12:27

The lazy man does not roast what he took in hunting,
But diligence is man’s precious possession

In the way of righteousness is life,
And in its pathway there is no death.
