Proverbs 10:31

The mouth of the righteous produces wisdom,
but a perverse tongue will be cut out.

The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom;
his tongue speaks what is just.

Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning,
but a rod is for the back of the one who lacks sense.

Let lying lips be quieted;
they speak arrogantly against the righteous
with pride and contempt.

But the king will rejoice in God;
all who swear by Him will boast,
for the mouths of liars will be shut.

What will He give you,
and what will He do to you,
you deceitful tongue?

The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,
but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

The tongue of the righteous is pure silver;
the heart of the wicked is of little value.
