Ecclesiastes 3:7

English Standard Version

a time to tear, and a time to sew;

a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

​

Did you ever find yourself in a situa-tion where you felt it was better to be silent than to speak?

How can you know the difference?​

Amos wrote, when “times are evil, it is prudent for a person to keep quiet.”

In Prov. 15:1, it says: “A soft answer turns away wrath.”
