Proverbs 15:26 The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words.
27 He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.
28 The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
Here we have again contrasting attitudes in people. We see here that it starts with the thoughts a person has. The sinner has wicked thoughts which evil an an abomination to God. Also we have the greedy person who not only takes from others but will even take from his own household just to satisfy his needs. Then reflecting back to verse 26 out of the heart the mouth speaks and we know wicked people only speak evil.
On the other side of this we see that those with a pure heart speak pleasant things. Also someone who would rather give than receive will prosper because the lord loves a cheerful giver. Lastly we see the righteous listens to their heart before they speak.
We should all be able to see in these scriptures it is a lot easier to and a lot less trouble to let the wisdom of God control our heart which helps us to control our speech
Luke 6:45 “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.”.
