28
A false witness will be cut off,
but a credible witness will be allowed to speak.
29
The wicked bluff their way through,
but the virtuous think before they act.
Verse 28
God punishes people who lie. Lies are evil (Deuteronomy 5:20, Mark 10:19). But a good listener will say helpful things. Such a person learns from what he hears. So his words will not suggest a wicked scheme.
The first proverb says that a false witness will come to ruin, which makes sense because lying breaks one of the Ten Commandments. In contrast, a person who listens to the truth and speaks it will have lasting words that endure.
Verse 29
When people see this wicked man, he seems bold. Really, he is not bold, but he is stupid. An honest man would think about his actions. An honest man would be much more careful.
Verse 29 explains that a wicked person pretends to be strong, but a righteous person doesn’t need to fake power. Their actions are solid because they are based on doing what is right.
Think about this: Do you try to appear in control when others are watching? Many people do, even in church. But that’s not what God wants. God knows you aren’t self-made because He created you. He wants us to be honest, humble, and righteous, so He can use us to fulfill His plans for the world.
