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

Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

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

The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the well-spring of wisdom as a flowing brook.

The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.

The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.

The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.

The lips of the wise diffuse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so.

Understanding is a well-spring of life to him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly.

There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.

The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.

O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh.

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace to the hearers.

Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
