Proverbs 24:26

An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.
Proverbs 24:26 · World English Bible

In context

24He who says to the wicked, “You are righteous”; peoples shall curse him, and nations shall abhor him—

25but it will go well with those who convict the guilty, and a rich blessing will come on them.

26An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.

27Prepare your work outside, and get your fields ready. Afterwards, build your house.

28Don’t be a witness against your neighbor without cause. Don’t deceive with your lips.
