In the multitude of words, there wanteth not transgression, but, he that restraineth his lips, sheweth prudence.

For, oft, are we stumbling, one and all: If anyone, in word, doth not stumble, the same, is a mature man, able to curb even the whole body.

Ye know, my brethren beloved, - but let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger,

I said, to myself, I will take heed to my ways, That I sin not with my tongue, - I will put on my mouth a muzzle, So long as the lawless is before me.

For a dream cometh through the multitude of business, - and, the voice of a dullard, is with a multitude of words.

Sparing of his words, is one who valueth knowledge, and, of a thoughtful spirit, is a man of intelligence.

The beginning of the words of his mouth, is folly, - but, the latter end of his speech, is mischievous madness.
