Proverbs 10:31

King James 2000

The mouth of the just brings forth wisdom: but the perverse tongue shall be cut out.

See the chapter Copy

The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue talks of justice.

In the lips of him that has understanding wisdom is found: but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.

The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life: but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

Let the lying lips be put to silence; who speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

He that has a crooked heart finds no good: and he that has a perverse tongue falls into calamity.

She opens her mouth with wisdom; and on her tongue is the law of kindness.

Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
