Proverbs 10:11

Modern King James Version

The mouth of a righteous one is a well of life; but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

See the chapter Copy

The upright shall see and rejoice; and all iniquity shall stop its mouth.

The lips of the righteous know what is pleasing; but the mouth of the wicked what is contrary.

Blessings are on the head of the just; but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

A wholesome tongue is a tree of life, but crookedness in it is a break in the spirit.

The lips of the righteous send forth knowledge, but the heart of the foolish is not so.

The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is like a flowing stream.

There is gold and a multitude of rubies; but the lips of knowledge are a rare jewel.

Let not any filthy word go out of your mouth, but if any is good to building up in respect of need, that it may give grace to the ones hearing.
