Proverbs 10:11, 13, 19-21, 31-32
Proverbs 10:11 TPT
The teachings of the lovers of God are like living truth flowing from the fountain of life, but the words of the wicked hide an ulterior motive.
Proverbs 10:13 TPT
Words of wisdom flow from the one with true discernment. But to the heartless, words of wisdom become like rods beating their backside.
Proverbs 10:19-21 TPT
If you keep talking, it won’t be long before you’re saying something really wrong. Prove you’re wise from the very start— just bite your tongue and be strong! The teachings of the godly ones are like pure silver, bringing words of redemption to others, but the heart of the wicked is corrupt. The lovers of God feed many with their teachings, but the foolish ones starve themselves for lack of an understanding heart.
Proverbs 10:31-32 TPT
The teachings of the righteous are loaded with wisdom, but the words of the evil ones are crooked and perverse. Words that bring delight pour from the lips of the godly, but the words of the wicked are duplicitous.
