Proverbs 17:26-28 The Message (MSG)

26. It’s wrong to penalize good behavior,or make good citizens pay for the crimes of others.

27. The one who knows much says little;an understanding person remains calm.

28. Even dunces who keep quiet are thought to be wise;as long as they keep their mouths shut, they’re smart.
