Proverbs 10: 31-32

"The mouth of the righteous flows with wisdom, but the perverted tongue will be cut out. The lips of the righteous bring forth what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked what is perverted." Proverbs 10:31-32 There are two principles that come to mind in the reading of these two verses. You have the religious message, as to what is acceptable, aka pleasing to God, is also one who is blessed with wisdom. The second is the principle that some readers may be familiar with; being able to hold one's tongue against your personal desires. Holding your tongue, rather than cursing or some other manner of inappropriate behavior.
