Proverbs 4:24

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.

if there is iniquity in your hand, remove it,
and don’t allow injustice to dwell in your tents—

Throw off all the transgressions you have committed, and get yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. Why should you die, house of Israel?

Since you put away lying, Speak the truth, each one to his neighbor,

because we are members of one another.

But now you must also put away all the following: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and filthy language from your mouth.

Therefore, ridding yourselves of all moral filth and evil, humbly receive the implanted word, which is able to save you.

So rid yourselves of all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all slander.

All the words of my mouth are righteous;
none of them are deceptive or perverse.

One with a twisted mind will not succeed,
and one with deceitful speech will fall into ruin.

and constant disagreement among people whose minds are depraved and deprived of the truth, who imagine that godliness is a way to material gain.
