Proverbs 10:20 - Exposition
Choice ( Proverbs 8:10 , Proverbs 8:19 ); tested, purified by fire; πεπυρωμένος , Septuagint. Is little worth; mere dross, in contradistinction to choice silver. So the tongue is contrasted with the heart, out of whose abundance it speaketh (Ec Proverbs 21:26 , "The heart of fools is in their mouth; but the mouth of the wise is in their heart"). Septuagint, "The heart of the godless shall fail ( ἐκλείψει )."
