Ecclesiastes 5:3

For dreams result from much work and a fool’s voice from many words.

When there are many words, sin is unavoidable,
but the one who controls his lips is wise.

The tongue of the wise makes knowledge attractive,
but the mouth of fools blurts out foolishness.

Should this stream of words go unanswered
and such a talker be acquitted?

The words from the mouth of a wise man are gracious,
but the lips of a fool consume him.

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words.

The words from the mouth of a wise man are gracious,
but the lips of a fool consume him.

When there are many words, sin is unavoidable,
but the one who controls his lips is wise.

The tongue of the wise makes knowledge attractive,
but the mouth of fools blurts out foolishness.

Even a fool is considered wise when he keeps silent,
discerning when he seals his lips.
