Proverbs 18:20

Young's Literal Translation 1862

From the fruit of a man's mouth is his belly satisfied, `From the' increase of his lips he is satisfied.

See the chapter Copy

From the fruit of the mouth a man eateth good, And the soul of the treacherous -- violence.

From his ways is the backslider in heart filled, And a good man -- from his fruits.

A brother transgressed against is as a strong city, And contentions as the bar of a palace.

For they are pleasant when thou dost keep them in thy heart, They are prepared together for thy lips.

To cause thee to know the certainty of sayings of truth, To return sayings of truth to those sending thee.
