Proverbs 13:3

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

In the multitude of words there is no lack of rebellion, but he that refrains his lips is wise.

The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips, but the just shall come out of the tribulation.

Whosoever keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps his soul from troubles.

I said, I will take heed to my ways that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bit while the wicked is against me.

But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

If anyone among you thinks to be religious and does not bridle his tongue, but deceives his own heart, his religion is vain.

For we all offend in many things. If any man offends not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to govern the whole body with restraint.
