Proverbs 10:19

Transgression is at work where people talk too much, but anyone who holds his tongue is prudent.

For all of us make many mistakes. If someone does not make any mistakes when he speaks, he is perfect and able to control his whole body.

You must understand this, my dear brothers. Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.

I told myself, "I will keep watch over my tongue to keep from sinning. I will muzzle my mouth when the wicked are around."

Too many worries lead to nightmares, and a fool is known from talking too much.

Whoever controls what he says is knowledgeable; anyone who has a calm spirit is a man of understanding.

He begins his speech with foolishness, and concludes it with evil madness.

Whoever watches his mouth and tongue keeps himself from trouble.
