Contextual Overview

1 Doth not wysdome crye? doth not vnderstanding put foorth her voyce? 2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the place of the pathes: 3 She cryeth at the gates of the citie, at the entrye of the doores: 4 It is you O ye men [saith she] whom I call, vnto the chyldren of men do I lyft vp my voyce. 5 Take heede vnto knowledge O ye ignoraunt, be ye wise in heart O ye fooles. 6 Geue eare, for I wyll speake of great matters, and open my lippes to tell thinges that be right: 7 For my mouth shall be talking of the trueth, and my lippes abhorre vngodlynesse. 8 All the wordes of my mouth are righteous, there is no frowardnes nor falsehood in them. 9 They are all playne to suche as wyll vnderstande, and right to them that finde knowledge. 10 Receaue my doctrine and not siluer, and knowledge rather then fine golde:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For my mouth shall speak truth,.... And nothing but the truth; and nothing more or less can be spoken by Wisdom, or Christ, who is truth itself; nothing else can come out of his mouth, or drop from his lips; all the doctrines of Christ are agreeable to the Scriptures of truth, and are what the Spirit of truth leads into; and the whole is called "the word of truth": there are many very particular and special truths, but the principal one is salvation by Jesus Christ;

and wickedness [is] an abomination to my lips; the sin of lying more especially, as opposed to truth; this is detestable to wisdom, what Christ never suffered his lips to utter; for no lie is of the truth, but of Satan the father of lies; and, as it is abhorred by Christ, it ought to be by all good men.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 8:7. My mouth shall speak truth — TRUTH, without falsity, or any mixture of error, shall be the whole matter of my discourse.
