TSK · Proverbs 22:18

More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold; Sweeter also than honey and the droppings of the honeycomb.

How sweet are thy words unto my taste! [Yea, sweeter] than honey to my mouth!

I rejoice at thy word, As one that findeth great spoil.

For wisdom shall enter into thy heart, And knowledge shall be pleasant unto thy soul;

My son, attend to my words; Incline thine ear unto my sayings.

Hear, for I will speak excellent things; And the opening of my lips shall be right things.

The lips of the righteous feed many; But the foolish die for lack of understanding.

The wise in heart shall be called prudent; And the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.

A word fitly spoken Is [like] apples of gold in network of silver.

For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth; for he is the messenger of Jehovah of hosts.

Through him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.
