Proverbs 18:20 says, “A man’s stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth; from the produce of his lips he shall be filled.”

That verse reminds me of Psalm 103:5. It says, “Who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagles.”

Proverbs 18:21 says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” 

Here is a note in my Bible about this verse. ‘A person’s life largely reflects the fruit of his tongue. To speak life is to speak God’s perspective on any issue of life; to speak death is to declare life’s negatives, to declare defeat, or complain constantly.’
