32The lips of the righteous know what finds favor,

but the mouth of the wicked only what is perverse.

32The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable,

But the mouth of the wicked, what is perverted.

32The lips of the righteous bring forth what is acceptable,

But the mouth of the wicked what is perverted.

32The lips of the righteous know (speak) what is acceptable,

But the mouth of the wicked knows (speaks) what is perverted (twisted).

but the mouth of the wicked is perverse.

But those who do wrong speak only twisted words.
