PROVERBS 29:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.”
Fools give full vent to their rage, but the wise bring calm by holding it back—a statement of the distinction between the fool's uncontrolled emotion and the wise person's restraint, establishing that self-control is a mark of wisdom. The theological significance involves the principle of the dignity of emotional discipline.
