From the fruit of a man's mouth his stomach is satisfied; he is satisfied by the yield of his lips.
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver. Like a gold ring or an ornament of gold is a wise reprover to a listening ear.
An evil man is ensnared by the transgression of his lips, but the righteous escapes from trouble. From the fruit of his mouth a man is satisfied with good, and the work of a man's hand comes back to him.
From the fruit of his mouth a man eats what is good, but the desire of the treacherous is for violence.
for it will be pleasant if you keep them within you, if all of them are ready on your lips.
to make you know what is right and true, that you may give a true answer to those who sent you?
