Proverbs 10:32 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable— The LXX read, The lips of the righteous distil graces; and the Syriac, The lips of the righteous acknowledge a kindness or benefit. The righteous make it their study to hurt nobody by their words; but, on the contrary, to speak always according to the dictates of a good and honest heart: while the wicked discover the badness of their heart by the malevolence of their discourse.

Proverbs 10:32

32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.h
