'Gossips' in the Bible

Their wives must also be serious. They must not be gossips, but instead be stable and trustworthy in everything.

At the same time, they also learn to be idle, going from house to house; they are not only idle, but are also gossips and busybodies, saying things they shouldn’t say.

Likewise, older women are to show their reverence for God by their behavior. They are not to be gossips or addicted to alcohol, but to be examples of goodness.
