PROVERBS CHAPTER 15 A soft, mild or gentle, answer, which may imply a foregoing charge or accusation, although the word is and may be rendered speech or discourse, turneth away wrath from the speaker. Grievous words, fierce and vexatious replies or speeches, stir up anger; kindle it, and cause it to flame forth.
