Proverbs 10:11

Wycliffe's Bible with Modern Spelling

The vein of life is the mouth of a just [or rightwise] man; but the mouth of wicked men covereth wickedness.

See the chapter Copy

Rightful men shall see, and shall be glad; and all wickedness shall stop his mouth.

The lips of a just [or rightwise] man behold pleasant things; and the mouth of wicked men beholdeth wayward [or perverted] things.

The blessing of God is over the head of a just [or rightwise] man; but wickedness covereth the mouth of wicked men.

The law of a wise man is a well of life; that he bow away from the falling of death, that is, of sin, and of hell.

A pleasant tongue is the tree of life; but the tongue that is unmeasurable [or untempered], shall defoul the spirit.

The lips of wise men shall sow abroad knowing; the hearts of fools shall be unlike, that is, they shall be full of ignorance.

Deep water is the words of the mouth of a man; and a strand floating over is the well of wisdom.

Gold, and the multitude of gems, and a precious vessel, be the lips of knowing.

Each evil word go not out of your mouth; but if any is good to the edification of faith, that it give grace to men that hear.
