'Commends' in the Bible

The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouth of fools gush out folly.

But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what will we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak like men do.

But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

For it isn't he who commends himself who is approved, but whom the Lord commends.
