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

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

Whoever spreads gossip betrays confidences; so don't get involved with someone who talks too much.

I tell you, on Judgment Day people will give an account for every thoughtless word they have uttered,

If anyone thinks that he is religious and does not bridle his tongue, but instead deceives himself, his religion is worthless.

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.
