<p>We are here assured, for our quickening to every good word and work, 1. That even good words will turn to a good account (<a class="bibleref" title="Prov.12.14" href="/passage/?search=Prov.12.14">Prov. 12:14</a>): <i>A man shall be satisfied with good</i> (that is, he shall gain present comfort, that inward pleasure which is truly satisfying) <i>by the fruit of his mouth</i>, by the good he does with his pious discourse and prudent advice. While we are teaching others we may ourselves learn, and feed on the bread of life we break to others. 2. That good works, much more, will be abundantly rewarded: The <i>recompence of a mans hands</i> for all his work and labour of love, all he has done for the glory of God and the good of his generation, <i>shall be rendered unto him</i>, and he shall reap as he has sown. Or it may be understood of the general rule of justice; God will <i>render to every man according to his work</i>, <a class="bibleref" title="Rom.2.6" href="/passage/?search=Rom.2.6">Rom. 2:6</a>.</p>
