Proverbs 10:11

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

The mouth of the just is a vein of life: and the mouth of the wicked covereth iniquity.

See the chapter Copy

The law of the wise is a fountain of life, that he may decline from the ruin of death.

The blessing of the Lord is upon the head of the just: but iniquity covereth the mouth of the wicked.

Words from the mouth of a men are as deep water: and the fountain of wisdom as an overflowing stream.

Let no evil speech proceed from your mouth; but that which is good, to the edification of faith, that it may administer grace to the hearers.

There is gold, and a multitude of jewels: but the lips of knowledge are a precious vessel.

The lips of the wise shall disperse knowledge: the heart of fools shall be unlike.

The lips of the just consider what is acceptable: and the mouth of the wicked uttereth perverse things.

A peaceable tongue is a tree of life: but that which is immoderate, shall crush the spirit.
