Proverbs 22:11 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

He that loveth pureness of heart Who is plain-hearted or sincere, and abhors dissimulation; whose heart is so free from guile that he places his pleasure in the integrity of his mind, and the purity of his conscience; for the grace of his lips For those gracious speeches which naturally and commonly flow from a pure heart, or whose discourse is gracious and sincere; the king shall be his friend The greatest men will, or should, desire, and highly prize the acquaintance and advice of such persons, rather than of dissemblers and flatterers, with whom they are too generally surrounded.

Proverbs 22:11

11 He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.
