"Judicious"

 “Judicious” means having or showing good judgment, being wise and careful in making decisions.

In the context of Proverbs 16:23 (“The heart of the wise makes his speech judicious”), it means speaking thoughtfully—choosing words that are:

  • Wise (based on truth and understanding)
  • Careful (not reckless or hurtful)
  • Purposeful (aimed at good outcomes)

So, a judicious person doesn’t just say whatever comes to mind—they think about whether their words will help, heal, or guide.


Would you like me to give you a few practical examples of what “judicious speech” looks like in everyday life? Or help you write a short reflection on how to apply this in your writing and conversations?
