Our Speech Excerpt The mouth  is a poetic use  of one of the organs of speech and refers to the words or thoughts spoken by  the  righteous , that is, a good, honest person.  Fountain of life  is similar to “tree of  life” used in  3:18 .  See there for comments.  The expression is used in  Psa 36.9 (Hebrew verse  10 ), where it refers to God as being the source or creator of all life.  In  16:22   Wisdom is a  fountain of life . In this verse the expression refers to the  words of the righteous, perhaps because such people are identified with the  wise and with wisdom.  More Reyburn, William David, and Euan McG.
