She openeth her mouth with wisdom; And the law of kindness is on her tongue.
She openeth her mouth with wisdom,.... When she opens her mouth, for it is not always open, she expresses herself in a discreet and prudent manner; as well as speaks of things not foolish and trifling, but of moment and importance, and of usefulness to others: or "concerning wisdom" (a); the church and people of Christ talk of the wisdom of God in the works...
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and on her tongue [is] the law of kindness. (n) Her tongue is a book by which one might learn many good things: for she delights to talk of the word of God.
Pro 31:26 The next verse presents one of the most beautiful features in the portrait: 26 פ She openeth her mouth with wisdom, And amiable instruction is on her tongue. The ב of בּחכמה is, as also at Psa 49:5; Psa 78:2, that of means: when she speaks, then it is wisdom pressing itself from her heart outward, by means of which she breaks the silence of her mouth.
