Proverbs 4:24

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

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

if you put away the sin that is in your hand and allow no evil to dwell in your tent,

Give up all the evil you have been doing. Get yourselves new minds and hearts. Why do you Israelites want to die?

Put away falsehood. Speak truth each one of you with his neighbor: for we are members (belonging to) (together with) of one another.

Now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive speech out of your mouth.

Therefore get rid of all filthiness and wickedness. Receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save you.

Put away all badness and all deception, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil talk.

All my speech is righteous. Nothing crooked or perverse comes from my mouth.

He who has a deceitful heart finds no good. He who has a perverse tongue falls into mischief.

frictions between men corrupted in mind and lacking in truth, supposing that godliness is a way of gain.
