The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but a perverse tongue will be cut out.
The mouth of the righteous man utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice.
Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning, but a rod is for the back of him who lacks judgment.
The tongue of the righteous is choice silver, but the heart of the wicked has little worth.
May lying lips be silenced—lips that speak with arrogance against the righteous, full of pride and contempt.
The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by Him will exult, for the mouths of liars will be shut.
What will He do to you, and what will be added to you, O deceitful tongue?
