PROVERBS 26:23 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.”
With their words the godless seduce the innocent, but fervent lips belong to the righteous—a final statement of the chapter about speech, establishing that the wicked use speech to deceive while the righteous speak with earnestness. The theological significance involves the principle of integrity in speech as expression of righteousness.
