Matthew Henry Commentary Proverbs 10:31

"The mouth of the righteous bringeth forth wisdom; But the perverse tongue shall be cut off." — Proverbs 10:31 (ASV)

To oppress the poor is to reproach our Creator.

Faithful, friendly reproofs help spiritual life, and lead to eternal life.

Old people especially should walk in the way of religion and godliness.

Even the righteous, when they sin on earth, will receive sharp corrections; much more will the wicked receive the due reward of their sins. Let us then seek those blessings which our Surety purchased by His sufferings and death; let us seek to follow His example and to keep His commandments.
