Proverbs 15:28 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Studieth to answer; he answers or speaks considerately and conscientiously, and therefore profitably, or to the use and edification of the hearers. The mouth, not the heart; for he is without heart in Scripture account, and he rashly speaks what comes into his mouth, without the direction of his heart or conscience. Evil things; foolish, and unprofitable, and hurtful speeches.

Proverbs 15:28

28 The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
