Proverbs 10:32 | Matthew Henry's Commentary
The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness. — Proverbs 10:32
However men may make light of giving short weight or measure, and however common such crimes may be, they are an abomination to the Lord.
Source Coverage: Proverbs 10:31-32
A good man discourses wisely for the benefit of others. But it is the sin, and will be the ruin of a wicked man, that he speaks what is displeasing to God, and provoking to those he converses with. The righteous is kept by the power of God; and nothing shall be able to separate him from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus.
