Proverbs 10:19
When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise.
Proverbs 11:12
A man who lacks judgment derides his neighbor, but a man of understanding holds his tongue.
Proverbs 17:28
Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent, and discerning if he holds his tongue.
All three proverbs cited are directed to "unwise" "fools" and those who "lack judgment".
What can you offer to those who are not fools, who are wise and do have good judgement but who remain silent when their wisdom is needed?
LD: Well, Proverbs 11:12 specifically says that a wise man holds his tongue. I think the principle is that most people don't have a problem talking too little, but rather too much. I, at least, can attest that I get myself into far more trouble by talking too much rather than too little.
